Russian President Vladimir Putin attends a plenary session at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, Russia, Wednesday, Sept. 7, 2022. – Russian President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday that Moscow will press on with its military action in Ukraine until reaching its goals and mocked Western attempts to drive Russia into a corner with sanctions.
Putin claimed that Russia has strengthened its sovereignty in the face of Western sanctions, which he said bordered on an aggression.“Russia has resisted the economic, financial and technological aggression of the West,” Putin said."I'm sure that we haven't lost anything and we won't lose anything. The most important gain is the strengthening of our sovereignty, it's an inevitable result of what's going one.
“An attempt to limit prices by administrative means is just ravings, it's sheer nonsense,” Putin said, adding that"it will only lead to a hike in prices.” He repeated that Moscow stands ready to “press the button” and start pumping gas “as early as tomorrow” through the Nord Stream 2, which has been put on hold by the German authorities.
