Russian president Vladimir Putin was humiliated on Friday when a cyberattack forced him to delay a key speech to an economic forum dubbed 'Russia's Davos'.
The Kremlin said the St Petersburg Economic Forum had suffered from a denial of service attack, forcing the Russian tyrant to delay a scheduled address by an hour.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in a call with reporters that specialists were working to fix the problem caused by a DDOS attack that began on Thursday, and that Putin's keynote address had been moved back to 3pm (1300 BST).
'Problems arose with the distribution of badges and confirmation of access to the main plenary session,' Peskov said. 'We will fix it, but it will take time.'
Russia's flagship economic forum kicked off on Wednesday, with attendees including representatives of the Taliban and separatist authorities from eastern Ukraine. The event is scheduled to run until Saturday.

Putin's "delayed" speech:
Blah, blah, blah.
Grievance, grievance, grievance.
Russian inferiority complex, Russian inferiority complex, Russian inveriority complex.
It's all over for him now!
</sarcasm>
This is news?
Problems with badge distribution for a conference?
Have you been to the DMV????
Apparently all is well and he went on with his speech.
So I think he survived the howibble humiwiation.
This kind of news is dopey.
Mother Russia Fail!
The Daily Mail never gets tired of the daily anti Russia propaganda.
The speech was delayed by 2 hours so the Taliban could get their front row seats to Putin’s Russian inferiority complex grievance show. Too funny!
Yes. It’s the Daily Mail’s fault that Russia is clown show and can’t even have proper IT security for Putin’s big speech to the Taliban.
Quickly ZEEPERS!
It is time for the Daily Mail Dance.
That’s odd because Fox News Channel just had a live feed on and the lights are on, Putin is speaking and he’s not looking near death.
Guess what, the Ukes are losing. The Globalists are losing.
...and Marcus never gets tired of wallowing in it either!😂
Seems like I only come to Free Republic anymore is to laugh at the people that believe Daily Mail Davos propaganda. 🤪 Beat me harder daddy… more sanctions against Russia and Ukraine will win any day now.
The Taliban rep fell asleep during Putin’s speech. Too funny!
Around 200 Ukrainian soldiers are now being killed every day, up from 100 late last month, an aide to President Volodymyr Zelensky told the BBC on Friday — meaning that as many as 1,000 Ukrainians are being taken out of the fight every day, including those who are injured.

The Russian order of battle in the Donbas remains opaque. It appears that Russia is relying on the militias of Donetsk and Luhansk as the primary strike forces to retake territory in their respective regions. Russia is supplying artillery units, electonic warfare, anti-aircraft/air defense, drone intelligence and air operations with both fixed and rotary wing craft. I think some western analysts made the mistake of assuming that Russia was providing the lead strike forces and that the militias were tagging along to provide support as needed.
But there are indications that the bulk of Russian forces have not been committed to battle and are being kept in reserve along with Russia’s more advanced weaponry. I believe that the Russian General Staff want to have a card or two to play in the event that NATO decides to insert itself into the fray.
Regardless of which forces are in the lead, the “special military operation” continues to grind down Ukrainian military units and the Ukrainians have been unable to mount a credible counter offensive to push the Russians and the Donbas militias back.
