At a meeting devoted to the situation in the regions bordering Ukraine, Vladimir Putin found himself in an awkward situation, unable to immediately recall the names of the regions that had been attacked by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The Kremlin leader, who often speaks of his “concern” for citizens living in the Kursk, Belgorod and Bryansk regions, stumbled during his speech and was forced to turn to a prepared report to continue his speech.
The meeting took place two weeks after Ukrainian forces broke through the Russian border in the Kursk region and temporarily established control over dozens of settlements.
Despite the seriousness of the topic under discussion, Putin found it difficult to name these regions without the help of notes, which caused heated discussions in the media.
The moment was captured and shown on federal television channels, demonstrating how the Russian leader found himself in an unpleasant situation caused by his own lack of confidence.
Earlier, “Cursor” wrote about whether Putin would respond with a large-scale attack on Ukraine on Independence Day.
Analysts note that no “apocalypse” is likely to occur on this day.
