Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely to send a signal to the United States and European powers on Friday over his appetite for peace or more war in Ukraine when he speaks at a marathon end-of-year news conference, APA reports citing Reuters.
At the "Results of the Year" event, which Putin has held in different formats most years since 2001, he fields dozens of questions on everything from price rises and his own future to nuclear weapons and what the Kremlin calls the "special military operation" in Ukraine.
Attendees had to undergo a COVID test - still routine for meetings involving Putin, 73, several years after the end of the pandemic.
