Putin Says 'the Whole of Ukraine Is Ours'

  • On June 20, 2025, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared at a major economic forum in St Petersburg that, in his view, the entirety of Ukraine belongs to Russia.
  • This statement followed Russia's 2022 annexation referendums in four Ukrainian regions and Crimea, which Kyiv and its allies deem illegal and reject.
  • Putin emphasized Moscow's refusal to relinquish any occupied areas and called for peace negotiations to recognize the local population's will, while Russia is advancing militarily, including near Sumy and Zaporizhzhia.
  • Ukraine's Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha condemned Putin's remarks as cynical disdain for peace efforts, noting Russia's intent to seize more territory and kill more Ukrainians, while Russia controls about 20% of Ukraine.
  • The situation implies prolonged conflict with Moscow maintaining a maximalist stance, Kyiv seeking increased military aid, and international calls for sanctions and isolation of Russia to pressure a resolution.
