President Vladimir Putin on Thursday reiterated his position that Russia did not start the war in Ukraine but launched what it calls a “special military operation” to try to stop it.

In his yearly speech to the Valdai Discussion Club, being held in Sochi, Putin said Russia, the world’s largest country by area, had no need to take territory from Ukraine.

He said the conflict was not therefore imperial or territorial but about the global order, and that the West, which had lost its hegemonic power and always needed an enemy, had lost touch with reality.

      Good work, comrades, can you now start hypnotically whispering “I am a committed Marxist-Leninist, I want to join the Communist Party and restore the Soviet Union?”

      Would be much obliged.

    Starting a war is when you are called in on the defensive side of an ongoing 8 year conflict.

      Today I learned that I was 12 and gave a bloody nose to a kid on the playground who was kicking my brother, I was actually the one who started it all.
