Putin on SMO's further tactics: We will hit carefully, but hard

Russia in SMO will act carefully, but persistently and will achieve its goals. This was announced today, July 27, by Russian President Vladimir Putin at a meeting with deputies after the final plenary session of the State Duma of the eighth convocation.

He also commented on the calls for "bolder" action in SMO, explaining that such tactics "have their own risks, the price of which is losses on the battlefield."

"During the awarding ceremony, one of the awardees whispered to me: we will win, but we need to be bolder. I really want to. But the question arises: even bolder? And here, just like in the economy, there are risks, the price of which is losses on the battlefield on our part. Therefore, we will also act carefully here, but persistently and consistently achieving the goals set for the country. And we will achieve them," the head of state stressed.
