Speaking to lawmakers at the Kremlin, Putin claimed that Western support for Ukraine's drone attacks on Russian territory constitutes aggression against the Russian people.

"Unable to defeat Russia on the battlefield, they are now resorting to openly terrorist methods in their fight against our people, but the people of Russia will never be defeated by anyone. This has never happened and will never happen," Putin declared. He highlighted what he described as the unity of Russian society in the face of external challenges, suggesting that Western pressure has only strengthened internal cohesion.

Putin also alleged that Western nations have intensified a "Russophobic" campaign since the start of the war in Ukraine in February 2022. He claimed these efforts aim to undermine Russia's economy and financial system, reiterating Moscow's position that Western sanctions have had a greater impact on the imposing nations than on Russia itself.

The Russian leader further emphasized that the country's political system is prepared to respond "firmly" to any actions deemed hostile. Addressing the future budget, Putin stressed the need to maintain funding for national defense, which accounts for approximately 40% of total expenditures, as well as for social programs. He affirmed that Russian soldiers fighting in Ukraine have the support of the entire society and reiterated Moscow's commitment to achieving its objectives in the conflict, calling the current period one of the most important and decisive in Russia's recent history.
