Putin on the role of the United States in the Ukrainian conflict: “No one in the United States is interested in Ukraine, they are interested in the greatness of the United States, which is fighting not for Ukraine and not for the Ukrainian people, but for its greatness and leadership in the world. And in no case do they want to allow Russia any success, because they believe that in this case the leadership of the United States will be damaged. This is the whole point of what the US is doing.” Source: Russian Head
