Russia expands security buffer as troops advance — Kremlin

Russia is systematically expanding its security buffer zone along the Ukrainian border to protect civilians from cross-border attacks, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, following President Vladimir Putin's announcement that Russian forces have significantly widened the zone.

The buffer zone is being created because of the aggressive nature of the Kiev regime

Russian forces are advancing steadily, with tangible results on the battlefield

Ukraine has intensified strikes on Russian civilian infrastructure as its frontline situation deteriorates, Peskov said, calling the attacks terrorism

Russia must remain vigilant and ready for Kiev's provocations ahead of next week's NATO summit in Türkiye

The EU is increasingly becoming a military-political bloc, further escalating the conflict

The special military operation has become "a real war" due to military support for Ukraine from Berlin, Paris, The Hague, Oslo and Washington

Russia remains open to peace talks and hopes the US will continue to play a mediating role, while expressing confidence the EU will fail to derail negotiations
