Putin Dismisses Fuel Shortages and Ramps Up Attacks After Ukrainian Strikes Hit Russian Oil Refineries
Russian President Vladimir Putin dismissed the impact of Ukrainian drone strikes on domestic oil refineries, claiming that fuel shortages are not critical to his military operations. Despite disruptions to one-third of Russia's refining capacity and export bans in over 40 regions, the Kremlin launched a massive missile barrage against Ukraine that killed at least 30 people. Analysts are questioning whether economic pressure from energy infrastructure damage will eventually force the Kremlin toward negotiations. However, Putin continues to downplay energy concerns while reaffirming his commitment to the ongoing war.
