Vladimir Putin calls on Ukraine army to remove leadership in Kyiv

Russia, 25/2: Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday called on the Ukrainian army to overthrow the government whose leaders he described as “terrorists” and “a gang of drug addicts and neo-Nazis”.

Putin also accused “Ukrainian nationalists” of deploying heavy weapons in residential areas of major cities to provoke the Russian military, a claim that could fuel fears Moscow is creating pretexts for justifying civilian casualties.

 

Addressing the Ukrainian military in a televised address, he urged them to “take power in your own hands.”
