Earlier in the day, during his annual state of the nation address, Putin blamed the West for his decision to launch a full-scale military assault against Ukraine last February. In the process, he reiterated the false claim that Ukraine is led by a"neo-Nazi regime." Putin made frequent references to Nazis throughout his remarks, likening the Ukrainian military to the forces of Nazi Germany. Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is Jewish and lost family during the Holocaust.
Putin has repeatedly made nuclear threats since the Ukraine war began, and he built on this trend on Tuesday by stating that Russia would suspend its participation in the New START Treaty. During his speech, Biden countered Putin by directly addressing the Russian people and emphasizing that the Russian leader could end the war in Ukraine"with a word."
The war in Ukraine has gone poorly for Russia, which is estimated to have suffered around 200,000 casualties since the invasion began on February 24, 2022. Russia failed in its initial goal of conquering Kyiv and turned its attention to the Donbas region in the east, but it has failed to secure its objectives there as well.
