Vladimir Putin declares Russian victory is inevitable in menacing new speech
He claimed he will yet declare victory over Kyiv on a day when speculation mounted over whether he would announced a mobilisation or formally declare war on Ukraine.
As protests broke out at the attack within Russia, Putin imposed laws outlawing any description of the invasion as a "war". But officially declaring it could pave the way to a wider mobilisation of Russia's manpower and industry. Putin again referenced Ukraine as being a part of Russia - a view that has led observers to conclude his invasion was designed to subjugate it to Moscow, like it was during the Soviet Union or periods of the old Russian Empire.The symbolism of the speech about the victory over Hitler's army will not be lost on many as the Kremlin tries to justify its war of aggression against Ukraine by baselessly claiming it is fighting Nazis.
