“Why is Bakhmut Still Not Ours?” Russian Media Monitoring Report, 27 March-2 April 2023.

Just like the Ukrainians, Russian propagandists are looking forward to the Ukrainian offensive.

While trying to justify the endless tug-of-war, they claimed it was all part of the master plan of the higher military command to eradicate the Ukrainian defenders of the city. Russian media threatened left and right with consequences for Sweden and Finland for their intentions of joining NATO and Armenia for becoming a party to the Rome Statute.

Putin is still holding the whole world hostage with his nuclear threats without any meaningful victories in the conventional war.
