Putin hails Russian 'heroes', but says military must learn lessons from Ukraine war • FRANCE 24

Russian President Vladimir Putin vowed Russia would fulfil all the goals of its military campaign in Ukraine as he heralded Russian soldiers and defence chiefs as "heroes" in a speech in Moscow. However, he also seemed to acknowledge that not all is going according to plan for Russia's military in Ukraine, saying the Ministry of Defence needed to take on board lessons that had been learnt during the invasion.

I wonder if Putin has considered that he might have some lessons to learn.

[norman]

Respect for neighbors is a valuable lesson.

[eyeofthetiger]

Lesson? Never bite more than you can chew!😂

[proselytizingorthodoxpente]

The first lesson it needs to learn is that its just not up to waging war in Europe anymore.

[bens]

The lesson: Don't mess with a free democratic country.

I remember Hitler making predictions and pronouncements of "miracle weapons" as the bombs rained down on his defeated armies.

[Cao-Cao-Blue-Army]

I would be drunk too if i had to listen to a putin rally.

[jojob_clips]

"Zircon no equivalent in the world" 🤣🤣🤣 Putin comforting himself

[jaapongeveer]

Lesson: Don't go where ya don't belong!

[ares]

It’s not Putin’s fault, it’s his military 🤣

[PrivateWalker]

Have I missed something here? Wasn't it "All going to plan" a little while back?

[TheRevan]

Maybe learn not to invade sovereign nations.

Maybe learn how to make their own nation a democracy

more body bags vlad, more body bags...

[briank.]

I find it funny that Putin always states that their hypersonic missiles are so amazing and no one has them other than Russia but they have made zero difference in the war with Ukraine... perhaps that is why other countries don;t have them. They are expensive and add no advantage.

[unworthy]

Remember the last short aging dictator that bragged about wunder weapons? I hope this ends up the same. : )

[mannyc]

Not going well, understatement of the year.

[rhysholdaway]

I wish for Christmas we could communicate to the Russian people the evil being done in their name.

[ピッピ-ep]

America is sending "PATRIOT" and it is really something to me

[jeannebarkhuizen]

Where can wee see the news and not the assumptions that was made by some American lol

[andyford]

He is very sure of his misiels but forget he needs Western washing machine chips to make it.
