The Russian President summed up the results of the year during a large press conference combined with a direct line. This year’s broadcast lasted four and a half hours. In total, 2.48 million questions were submitted to it. Below is a selection of Vladimir Putin’s quotes on various topics.
About the military operation and the Kursk Region
Commenting on the progress of military operation in Russia’s Kursk Region, President Putin stated that Ukrainian troops made a mistake by attacking Russian territory and will soon be knocked out of there.
“The attack is going on along the entire front line on a daily basis. Our fighters are regaining territory by square kilometers.”
“I don’t want to name a specific date when they will knock the enemy out. Our guys are fighting right now. If they hear me, they will go [on the offensive] by this date, and they will not count with losses, so… A day or two doesn’t matter anymore.”
About the invulnerability of the hypersonic missile “Oreshnik”
As regards the meaning of the missile’s name, President recommended to address the Russian military. According to Vladimir Putin, this is a modern weapon, the principle of operation of which is based on previous projects, but has no analogues in the world.
“There is no chance to shoot down these missiles. If Western experts believe so [that it is possible], let them offer us and those in the United States who pay them, to conduct a high-tech duel of the XXI century. Let them determine the target in Kiev, and concentrate missile defense and air defense forces there. We are ready for such an experiment. And it will be exciting for us.”
About “weakened Russia” and Trump
A journalist for the US television channel NBC said that Russia is in a “weakened position” because a large number of Russians have died in Ukraine, there was an assassination of lieutenant general Igor Kirillov, and the Syrian government of Bashar al-Assad, which Moscow supported, has fallen.
Asked about a “weakened Russia,” Putin quoted the American writer Mark Twain:
“Since you are an American, I want to recall a man and writer known to all, who once said: “The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated.”
“Russia is at war with virtually every NATO country. One 155 mm shell two years ago cost €2,000. Now it costs €8,000. If things continue at this rate, not only 2% of expenditures will not be enough for military spending, 3% will be lacking.”
“You want to portray what is happening in Syria as a defeat. We went there so that a terrorist enclave would not be created there. On the whole, we have achieved our goal. And those groups that fought with Assad have changed. It is not without reason that a number of countries and the United States now want to establish relations with them. Why are you meddling if they are terrorist?”
The Russian president also noted that he has not yet seen Assad since his arrival in Moscow, but plans to do so.
As for a possible meeting with Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin said he has not spoken to him at all in more than four years, but is ready to talk to the American leader-elect at any time.
“If we ever have a meeting with the newly elected president Mr. Trump, I am sure we will have something to talk about”.
About attacks on the church in Ukraine and “godless Jews”
Speaking of “godless cosmopolitans,” Putin blamed unbelieving Jews for the oppression of the Russian Orthodox Church.
“What is happening to the Russian Orthodox Church [in Ukraine] is a unique thing. A gross thing, a violation of the rights of believers. There is a tearing up of the church going on, it’s like a firing squad in front of the whole world. And the international community prefers not to notice it. Those who do it, I think it will come back on them. They are not even atheists, they believe in something, that there is no God. And these are not atheists, but people without any faith at all, godless people. Ethnic Jews, who saw them in the synagogue? Nobody’s seen them there. They’re kind of not Orthodox, because they don’t go to churches either. They’re not Islamic, because they hardly show up in mosques either. They are people without tribe, they do not care about anything that is dear to us and the overwhelming part of the Ukrainian people. They will leave someday and go to the beach instead of to church”.
Israel is the main beneficiary of Syria’s developments
“Israel is violating international law in Iran and Lebanon, occupies Syria and violates its sovereignty. I don’t know what Israel’s goal is in Gaza, but it is only condemnable.”
“We hope that Israel will withdraw from Syrian territory at some point, but now it is bringing more troops there. The impression is that not only are they not going to withdraw, but they are going to reinforce.”
About the change of himself after three years of military operation
“These three years, they were, of course, a serious test for all of us, the whole country. I started to joke less and almost stopped laughing.”
As for the international reaction to the Direct Line With Vladimir Putin, the West threw a tantrum.
In the United States, the Russian president was accused of a “demonstration of control,” while the Germany took offense at him for allegedly bullying it.
The newspaper Bild, in particular, which called the Direct Line “Putin’s big propaganda show,” was surprised by his statement that Germany lacks sovereignty because Germans sing songs in English.
The Washington Post, close to the U.S. Democratic Party, concluded that “Putin is using the Direct Line to consolidate his power and demonstrate his complete control over the country’s political scene.”
The French Le Figaro, in an attempt to thicken the colors, took out of context a part of Putin’s phrase: “Putin admitted that he does not know when Russia will be able to dislodge the Ukrainian army from Kursk”.
The Italian Corriere Della Sera, breaking from the ranks of the rabid, titled its text broadcast of Russian leader in a simple and quite truthful way: “The economy is developing despite external threats, we are close to our goals”.

all goals are being met as it is part of the plan soon to have more partners and more goals and plans.
twists amd turns .deceiving has to be contrived and convoluted to be worthy of praise .simple deceits not acceptable it has to be like a mystery,something extraordunary .and surprising imo .
putin must learn talk is cheap but it takes money to buy whiskey..🥃.
and grandiose speeches. can’t miss them.
about the recent attacks/executions on kiev. a bunch sbu slime has been terminated by strikes and by direct hits from sleeper cells from within.
did the idiot vladimir putin really state: “that the rebels in syria that overthrew assad, is no longer terrorist and that they have changed”? wow really, that is totally something i expect to hear from the communist democrats in america, and not from putin!
what the hell is a communist democrat? did you make that up? democrat, republican both are the same to me.evil wicked fucks, as matter of fact fuck the 2 party system, how about that?
epic trolling. immediate western reaction will be to disagree with him and say they are still terrorists – but then that means that contrary to us law they are funding a terrorist organization. rock, meet hard place…
all governments around the world are working together and we the people are their target…..putin the chabat puppet says what his rabbi told him to do.
just moron amerikunts swallow too much jewish semen
you got it right. putin is a chabad puppet. he even fired one of his national security people who criticized chabad. putin is a phony who sold out syria and will sell out iran too. he’s a phony.
personally, i like what he said, when he was being dined at buckingham palace. a press conference with cameron. ‘”you will not deny that one does not really need to support the people who not only kill their enemies, but open up their bodies, eat their intestines in front of the public and cameras. are these the people you want to support?,” putin told a news conference. funny how the west, support and fund them, as well as the nazis in ukraine.
there democrats are hardly communists. did you get the impression from the clintons, or nancy pelosi, that they favoured the elimination of the rent-seeking class? you are one dumb shit.
my direct line w gay mulatto imho saxon sawyer vanya skippy59
🫵🤡 😆😆😆
question: mr. president. in 2001 you made the public statement and claim that you had information regarding the terrorist assault on the u.$. in lower manhattan and washington before it happened but were denied… if this is truth, as a member of the un security council why did you remain silent after you saw the aftermath of how it would be used in afghanistan and iraq?…
more importantly… did you attempt to dissuade the prc and india from involvement in aiding and abetting that criminal act which should have been investigated by the unsc but never was?… and in hindsight had you had the information that you said that you did have before those events occurred…
why didn’t you ensure that another false flag that occurred in the eastern donbas 13 years later did not happen by mentioning to the world what you knew about the 9/11 attacks before they occurred???… merry xmas!
george w. bush knew even more. why did he keep quiet? anybody remember ‘tears of grief’ the $10 million monument that the people of russia sent to new york, to show their grief, compassion, sorrow and friendship? why did the elite of new york hide it out of sight?
not the point as we know the bush family was intrinsically involved in all of it and was blatantly committing treason against it’s own government after it took 3 years for an official report on what occurred out of expedience before his second “rigged” election.. imagine where this world would be today had putin showed leadership and led a committee within the unsc to contradict the 9/11 commission report through there own investigation?…
… but we know why he wouldnt given the crimes committed by the prc and india hauling the evidence away to be destroyed in their own steel mills… and than of course russia’s love affair much like the u$ with i$rael that is the untouchable!…
what specific law or statute was violated by the recycling of the twin tower steel by china and/or india? let’s hear it, matlock.
it was a crime scene… was it not?… i’d post links on some reports that human remains were still embedded in the steel.. . but of course we know s-f doesn’t allow that.. then the visa(s) they found of the hijackers “that survived” the molten metal effect???… and why would the u.$. government destroy the video footage of the “5 dancing $atan(s)”?… wouldn’t india and the prc be just a bit concerned about those fact(s) that they most certainly knew about???…
more importantly… wouldn’t they want to ensure the safety of their own citizens that this could never and would never happen to them?… again. why did it take 3 1/2 years to furnish such an important series of finding(s) that omitted a 47 story buildings collapse from the official report?…
more importantly. why didn’t the prc and india find the lack of those details and the findings of nanothermite discovered in the debris important enough to demand an international investigation when the u.$. government didn’t see fit to do so within it’s own territory???
why would putin or any other foreign government have instigated an investigation into 9/11? how many times will you reiterate this infantile meme on sf?
because the un/unsc under international law has a responsibility to protect each sovereign government so that event(s) like it can never happen again. remembering the “old” pearl harbor that made that organization possible… and the “new” pearl harbor (aka bob kagan pnac and his lovely witch vicky nudelman aka maidan 2014), that made it resoundingly clear why those international rules and treatise are so vital in ensuring they don’t happen “again”!…
the permanent members of the unsc are us, russia, china, france and the uk. why are you focused on russia, and not the other permanent members of the unsc?
because those 3 are the most important military(s) carrying nuclear weapons that can defend themselves… and are also the most important members of the briics that russia, china and india have deferred to their seats and meal tickets in the western union?!!!
so? france has 230 nukes and the uk have 120 operationally able with a ceiling upto 280 nukes, whilst being unsc permanent members, with the us having 5,400. nato members = 5,750 – 5,910. russia has over 6,000, china has around 400, india have around 160 (possilby more than the uk) – brics members 6,560. north korea (allied with russia) and pakistan (member of the sco with india, russia and china) and not forgetting israel and how many do they have, despite not signing upto the npt.
i don’t keep track of those numbers. and i dare say no one knows the accuracy. but if you were to ask me in 2024 that russia was the strongest nuclear capable military on the planet i’d have to say “show me” after what the western/nato terrori$ts have done to it the past decade!… let alone the russian government that still remains in the west’s institution(s), of law, banks and energy???
which is why the first line states that bush knew about it before president putin, the latter being the president of russia, not the us.
no putin probably knew about it within days or weeks of it happening… and just as an aside… did any of the 5 dancing “members” outside those collapsing buildings that were set free within 2 months have dual citizenship(s) to eu member states, ukraine and russia in addition to i$rael???… bet putin would know the answer to that one!
many knew what had happened and were involved with the planning. so why are you trying to put president putin in charge of events that happened in the usa, that were nought to do with russia? remember those dancing israelis and what happened to them? how much does the us hand over to that particular nation? remember the bush family were dining out with their business partners, the bin-lidens, the night before the event?
making it easy for you… putin said last year that there were foreign intelligence services throughout his government -without citing any of them… is it possible one or more of the dancing team in lower manhattan 23 years ago worked for mossad as a registred russian citizen???…
well, you still have enough: i started to joke less and almost stopped laughing.
equilíbrio perfeito, um desabafo sério na forma dum sarcasmo. boas festas.
🇷🇺=🏃♂️🤡 😆😆😆
putin will certainly not spread any real truths but only the narrative. the west is evil, russia is a victim of the west, etc. one should never forget that putin was and still is a kgb agent. there are no good rulers and the propaganda is always the same. the ruler who acts as if his rule is based on the will of the people, etc.
oooh, kgb! scary!
omg, no way, there’s fuckload of those cia agents in russia as we speak.
you mistaking president putin for zelinsky, us, uk and eu, based on their hatred of anything russian?
death and taxes the 2 certainties .
how many leaders can hold 4-5 hour press marathons? so many international journalists, including those from nations that ban russian media. in the uk, our prime minister is mocked in a song, that has made it to the top of a couple of charts, but, the bbc and uk radio stations refuse to play it. well worth listening to ‘it will be freezing this christmas’ – dedicated to the uk pensioners.
hants, uk pensioners are useful as palestinians, they have to go to heaven, no?
a himn for the global occident, suggestion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkf3oxziui4
we all go to heaven or hell. i just love the fact that a favourite track, from my teenage years, is having a revival in 2024, courtesy sir starmer and the granny harmers. love the lyrics, love the melody and love the fact it is taking the urine out of stasi starmer.
midget vlad to his troops in syria:
“run for your lives!!!”
heheheh
i guess you believe that zelinsky is a giant on the world stage? isn’t he shorter than president putin or the same height as president putin and maccron? who are just an inch shorter than stasi starmer.
putin did not talk to trump in years but the talks between intelligence agencies are continuously taking place. the timimg is also interesting. simultaneously, nato has abandoned the active support for zelensy and ukraine and russia has abandoned the military support of prez. al-assad and syria. it looks that a deal has been made: russia gets ukraine and the us gets syria. of course, the politicians have to lie about it. if they did not lie, they would not be “good politicians”.
trump and president putin were prevented from talking, courtesy of hilary clinton hiring christopher steele to write the trump dossier and the media hysteria that went with it. the first time they met was in helsinki, without aides or note takers, followed by a working lunch, with advisers present. didn’t president putin also present trump with the (nuclear) football, as a gift for baron. russia had just hosted the world cup football tournament.
my sister hillbillies have direct line to fentanyl and lgbt
don you live in u.s.a?, that’s why you have direct line to fentanyl and lgbtia+ lol!
putin understand this direct line is for internal affairs, and he knows their enemies are watching too, so you only could give vague answers. it’s sad, but westerners media is totally controlled by *machiavellic* actors, the primary way to control the human cattle is using mainstream media worldwide, that’s why every european media shows like a putin show, they demonize leaders but they own and corrupt all system. the agentur controls everything, human cattle.
the agentur now spies on your cellphone and use ai to create a shadow of your mind using your cellphone interactions…? the agentur rules over the human cattle, if they are brave so instead of human cattle the name is the “unicorn” or the “minotaurs”.
can you imagine any western leader being able to do similar for 4 minutes, let alone 4 hours?
no reason to. they’re all unaccountable. it’s the bird 🐦 from them 🖕
i used to like putin alot, but he is turning out to be an utter clown and needs to be replaced with someone much stronger and braver asap
yeah, as spoken by a true nafo/project alchemy troll.
top quote from my amerikunt hillbilly senile boyfriend—“pants down bendover peacenik–no lube allowed”
i sincerely hope 2025 brings president putin cause for levity and joy.
the rothschilds are behind all of this they have a centralized bank in every country the only two they didn’t have but centralized bank was syria and russia. in the united states it’s called the federal reserve which we need to get rid of the federal reserve it has nothing to do with the people it’s a rothschild own bank
google nimrod his birthday and you’ll see what you get nimrod was the first so-called globalist that we’re trying to establish a new world order and he they were building the tower of bala
and create a found out and he destroyed their plans and scattered the people across the nations and change their tongue means they couldn’t communicate with each other to finish building it so that was in the 1500 now you got the same thing going on today
the world economic forms the un the who black rock the cia but fbi the vatican okay there’s so many more entities that are working on this new world order america not not the people the government they’re trying to usher in a new world order order a chaos
we the people hold the power not governments we the people are being played and manipulated and deceived we need to come together and stop fighting against each other and take down the enemy which is the principalities the spirit of the darkness and leaders in high places
they are playing us and deceiving us because the fight is not against flesh and blood it’s against the leaders in high places the principalities in the spirit of the darkness so once you understand that it doesn’t matter what color you are religion is a man-made thing to keep us divided we need to love one another and take down the people that are really hurting us
elon musk is very very evil person he has all these companies and he’s a deceiver his so-called brother has technology that can make pictures of anything and anyone in the sky and there’s a hologram company that make his rockets that supposedly he shoots off with a car on top well that was fake that did not happen it was a hologram hoping your eyes people please for the good of humanity and the creator we come together in unity and love
the rothschilds created israel in 1948 the rothschilds are zionist they don’t care about people they care about killing people and hurting us children of god and then trump when i was there in 2018 and recognized jerusalem as a capital of israel that was in daniel 70 so trump if he got shot in his ear he would have a scar and he doesn’t he doesn’t have a mark so that tells me he never got shot
