Sky News explained why Putin continues to attack Ukraine, ignoring peace efforts

After negotiations and discussions of peace initiatives, Russia launched a large-scale attack on Ukraine. According to Sky News, although the Kremlin claims that the targets were military sites, footage from the scene shows damage to civilian buildings, resulting in the deaths of over two dozen people. The buildings of the British Council and the EU delegation were damaged.

The author of Sky News believes that Vladimir Putin carries out these attacks because 'he can.' According to the publication, the Russian president is convinced that he will win the war and uses diplomacy to buy time, continuing to 'suppress the will of Ukrainians to victory.'

In response to Russian aggression, Ukraine is attacking Russian oil facilities, causing significant damage to Moscow. However, analysts believe that these strikes alone will be insufficient to force the Kremlin to end the war.

After attempts to establish peace, Russia launched an attack on Ukraine, during which civilian buildings and people were affected. Putin continues his aggression, convinced of his own victory, which forces Ukraine to respond to the attacks.
