An aggressive Vladimir Putin set himself on a collision course with the West in his New Year's message to his people.

He showed no inkling of compromise over Ukraine claiming he made 'necessary decisions' in a catastrophic military conflict which has led to 100,000 deaths on his own side.

But Putin, 70, looked strained and worn as he addressed Russians on television in each of the country's 11 time zones just before midnight.

His message was also tired, again claiming he was taking on Nazis in Ukraine and that the West wanted to use Ukraine as a tools to destroy Russia.

He coughed at several points, and appeared weary and aged in a message broadcast, as his missiles pounded in horrific attacks Ukraine even as people prepared to mark the new year.

You would have thought the Kremlin would have edited out the coughing and shaking from the video. And that the Kremlin could have found a different actress for this video instead of using the same actress from previous propaganda videos.

Snowden is going to be mobilized in about a week after Putin declares martial law and closes the borders.

The hairline, facial structure (such as jawline, dimples, and cheeks), and eyebrows differ in all three of those pictures.

Mayne you shouldn’t go into forensics as a hobby.

Fatigued or not he is correct. Russia is the big domino to break up and be absorbed into globo homo world empire while wokism here readies the upcoming kill whitey purge to get the USA fragmented and into globo homo empire. How wonderful.

He’s right. Angela Merkel recently admitted that the Minsk Agreements were intended only to delay while they built the Ukraine’s military. Putin noted that manuever has harmed trust. But he’s right - he’s in the way of NATO and they want him gone. For decades people warned not to try to take Ukraine into NATO. The political class has known what’s going on - NATO wants to destroy Russia and is using the Deep State headquarters in the Urkaine to do it.
