Moscow, september 26:
Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that escalating tensions will not achieve the desired results for Ukraine and will only complicate the situation.
At a press conference on Friday, Putin said that Ukraine will not achieve the desired results through any provocative actions or steps to escalate tensions. According to him, such actions will make the situation in Ukraine more difficult.
Putin claimed that Ukraine is trying to arrange a ceasefire in various areas, including attacks on energy infrastructure and air strikes, following Russia’s military response.
He said that Russia has begun responding to Ukraine’s alleged attempts to impose a naval blockade and attacks on storage facilities and civilian infrastructure.
According to Russian estimates, more than 100 ships in the Black Sea have been damaged due to Ukraine’s activities, Putin claimed. (RSS/Xinhua)
