Vladimir Putin has accused the western world of trying to 'cancel Russia' as he again claimed he had 'no other option' but to start the 'special military operation' in Ukraine.
In a fiery speech, the leader of the Kremlin said that the west were trying to achieve global dominance and hit out at them, claiming they didn't understand Russia and that Russia wouldn't stop.
Speaking in a televised address, Putin said: "'The West doesn't even bother to hide the fact that its aim is to damage the entire Russian economy, every Russian" by bringing in sanctions against the country for the illegal invasion.
