Kremlin said on Wednesday that her confrontation Russia with states hostile to him, as well as what he called a “hybrid war” against him from the West, “will last a long time.”

Dmitry Peskov gave an assessment in response to a question about how long Russia’s “special operation” in Ukraine would last.

“If you mean war in the broadest sense – confrontation with enemy states, hybrid war against our country, then yes, it will continue for a long time,” he told reporters.

“And here we must be decisive and confident and rally around the president,” he said.
