Putin says situation in illegally annexed parts of Ukraine ‘extremely difficult’

Vladimir Putin released a statement on Russia's Security Services Day, ordering the federal authorities to step up surveillance at the country's borders to prevent risks from threats abroad and 'traitors' at home.

The Russian president goes on to say the situation in the illegally annexed parts of Ukraine, Donetsk and Luhansk, is 'extremely difficult' and ordered security services to ensure the safety of people living there.

Why does Putin look nervous?

As if he’s thinking about his own survival when Russia loses the war he started.

It is easy to understand; when you look at the expression of his face; that he is extremely nervous; and do not at all feel on top of the situation !!!!

He actually means strengthen with convicted criminals that have aids and hepatitis. Those are the 'special' forces he speaks of.

Napoleon having sacrificed all the goats and chickens that lived in the east of the farmyard to his invasion of the neighbouring farm, decided it was time to declare the situation extremely difficult... From his gilded farmhouse.

Putin went through denial, anger, bargaining and now slowly accepting the reality of his downfall😂
