President Vladimir Putin vowed to continue with Russia's year-long war in Ukraine and accused the U.S.-led NATO alliance of fanning the flames of the conflict in the mistaken belief that it could defeat Moscow in a global confrontation
"They intend to translate the local conflict into a global confrontation, we understand it this way and will react accordingly," Putin said.

Russian forces have suffered three major battlefield reversals since the war began but still control around one fifth of Ukraine.
