⚡️ Russia's President Vladimir #Putin at @Valdai_Club: If it comes to a direct ATTACK on Russia, then, of course, the question of the Russian Federation using all the weapons at our country's disposal will inevitably and immediately appear on the agenda. ❗️ This is INEVITABLE.

💬 Russia's President Vladimir #Putin at @Valdai_Club: ❗️ It was not Russia who wanted or started the war - it was started against us. Aggressive nationalism and Russophobia in Ukraine were encouraged [by the West] for years in order to turn it into a tool for fighting Russia.
