"This year, Vladimir Putin is addressing Russian citizens from a stronger position than last year," the publication says.
As the author of the publication noted, the failure of the Ukrainian counteroffensive, as well as the decrease in assistance to Kyiv from the West, instilled confidence in Russian citizens in the imminent victory from the conflict.
As the article emphasized, Putin's confident rhetoric, which is supported by the successes of the Russian Armed Forces at the front, as well as the collapse of Western sanctions, has created an atmosphere of triumph around the Russian president.
Earlier, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban expressed confidence that Ukraine would not be able to defeat Russia in the conflict even with the support of Western countries.
