Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia, addressed the issue of readiness for war with European countries in a joint press conference with African leaders. He stated that although some European countries are preparing for war by 2030, Russia has no desire to engage in conflicts. Putin made it clear that his country is not indifferent to military threats, but prefers to turn to diplomacy and negotiations instead of war.
Military readiness and unwillingness for war
Putin continued his remarks by saying, "We are ready right now, but we have no desire to go to war with Europe." He explicitly emphasized that if European countries decide to prepare for war, that is their right, but they have the right to know that in the event of severe conflicts, there will be no winners. These statements reflect Russia's concern about the intensifying tensions in Europe and stress the necessity of maintaining peace and stability in the region.

He expressed hope that tensions will soon decrease and that various countries will engage in dialogue and interaction instead of resorting to war.
