Russian President, Vladimir Putin, declared in his end of year news conference that Russia's stance on the war with Ukraine remains unchanged. He sternly stated that should Ukraine fail to accept Russia's terms; Moscow would resolve the conflict by force.
According to Putin, the objectives of his controversial special military operation in Ukraine have not wavered. He declares that peace will only be achieved once Russia accomplishes its goals of denazification, demilitarization, and the attainment of neutral status for Ukraine.
