Vladimir Putin on Tuesday accused Ukraine of seeking to “terrify” the Russian population after an unprecedented drone attack on Moscow, while praising the capital’s anti-aircraft defense, which worked “satisfactorily”.
“The Kiev regime has chosen (…) to terrify Russia, to intimidate Russian citizens,” said the Russian president in statements broadcast on Russian public television.
“Western support for the Kiev regime is pushing Ukrainian leaders to commit increasingly irresponsible criminal acts,” the Russian Foreign Ministry blasted in a statement, accusing Ukraine of seeking to “sow panic” by Russia.

The German leader assured the Ukrainian president “that Germany will continue its support for Ukraine, including in the military field, in close coordination with its European and international partners,” the chancellery said in a statement.
