New Delhi: Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine proceeds in accordance with previously set goals and plans, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in an interview on Tuesday.

Peskov added that “the operation in Ukraine was a serious operation with serious purposes. From the very beginning, no one was expecting it to take a couple of days. The operation’s goals have not been achieved yet.”

It was perfectly clear for Russia that Kiev was preparing to launch a military operation against the People’s Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk (DPR and LPR), Peskov said.

According to the official, Russia was hoping that Ukraine will never get prepared for a strike against Donbass, and Moscow was counting on progress in the Normandy Format talks.

“After that, in a couple of days, it was perfectly clear for us, for our military specialists, that Ukraine was going to launch an offensive against Donbass,” the spokesman said, adding that by that time, Ukraine had amassed approximately 120,000 servicemen along the line of contact.

Western countries have been turning a deaf ear to Russia’s security concerns for decades, Peskov said.

“President Putin’s intents are to make the world listen to and understand our concerns,” he said in an interview with Media.

“We have been trying to convey our concerns to the world, first to Europe, to the United States for a couple of decades, but no one would listen to us and before it is too late, it was a decision to start, to launch a special military operation to get rid of anti-Russia that was created next to our border,” he stressed.

On February 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special military operation in response to a request for help by the heads of the Donbass republics. Moscow had no plans of occupying Ukrainian territories but aimed to demilitarize and denazify the country.

Following this step, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and several other countries announced sanctions against Russian individuals and legal entities.
