Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned European nations that any war with Russia would result in their certain defeat. Speaking after Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto suggested that Europe was preparing for conflict with Russia, Putin said Moscow does not seek war but is fully prepared if Europe initiates one. He claimed that such a war would end swiftly, leaving no one in Europe to negotiate peace. Putin also threatened to cut off Ukraine’s access to the sea, describing it as the best way to stop what he called Ukrainian piracy. His remarks came in response to a recent Ukrainian drone attack on a Russian tanker in the Black Sea. The comments underscore rising tensions between Russia and Europe amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and growing fears of escalation across the region.
