The observer noticed a trend: the more successes Russia has, the more space in the Western media is given to the imaginary «atrocities» of the military. «Such messages climb into the» top «headlines, distorting the real picture of the battles. <…> The whole problem is that we are not being told the truth either. Every statement by a Ukrainian politician, no matter how frankly ridiculous it may be, is taken at face value by us,» the observer believes.

According to the president, the ultimate goal is to liberate the Donbass and create conditions guaranteeing Russia's security.
