  • He questioned EU leaders' endorsement of Ukraine's drone tactics, asking if it encouraged attacks on civilians.
  • Putin expressed concern that EU support could be interpreted as a green light for further aggression against Ukraine.

During a strategic session at a command post for the Joint Group of Forces, Russian President Vladimir Putin underscored the importance of maintaining intense military operations against Ukrainian defense installations. He articulated a pressing need for ongoing attacks,stating that it is crucial to persist with these military measures.

His comments were partly influenced by a statement released by certain leaders from European Union on June 7, which commended Ukraine's recent advancements in drone utilization. This acknowledgment prompted Putin to raise concerns, questioning whether it implied support for targeting civilian infrastructure,including residential areas,transport vehicles,and educational institutions.

The Russian President cautioned that EU's backing of Ukraine's military strategies might inadvertently signal approval for further hostile actions. He remarked,“These notions are currently being acted upon, and thus we must adapt our military responses accordingly,” reinforcing necessity for an urgent reaction from Russia's armed forces.
