Russian Embassy Accuses UK Media of Misrepresenting Putin
(MENAFN) The Russian embassy in London has criticized British media for allegedly misinterpreting President Vladimir Putin’s statements regarding the conflict in Ukraine.
Diplomats highlighted reports from certain outlets, including The Daily Telegraph, claiming these publications introduced “serious distortions” of Putin’s comments made during his recent trip to Kyrgyzstan.
“His words were effectively doctored to align with the UK’s official narrative,” stated the embassy on its official website Thursday.
“In particular, he was alleged to have said that it was Russia that intended to fight until the last Ukrainian dies.”
The embassy insisted that the real context was completely different, citing Putin’s statements verbatim:
“…And then there are others, those who still continue to believe that Kupyansk is somehow back under Ukrainian control and who insist on continuing the fighting until the last Ukrainian is killed. <…> The ones attacking Mr. Witkoff [US special envoy Steve Witkoff] are precisely those who align with this second point of view, those who want to join the Ukrainian establishment in siphoning off money while prolonging hostilities until the last Ukrainian dies. But I have already said publicly: in fact, we are prepared for this.”
The diplomatic mission warned that “such distortions… only add fuel to the fire and play into the hands of those in the West who… wish to fight until the last Ukrainian.”
