"Russia will win, I have no doubt about it," said Russian President Putin when he inspected a military enterprise in St. Petersburg on the 18th. On the same day, Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov held an annual press conference at the Russian Foreign Ministry. At this three-hour meeting, he denounced the United States for launching a "mixed war" against Russia, and Russia's special military operation in Ukraine was a response to this. On the other hand, Ukrainian President Zelensky made a speech at the World Economic Forum held in Davos, Switzerland, by video on the evening of the 18th, calling on Western countries to provide Ukraine with more heavy weapons to counter Russia. Behind the Russian-Ukrainian air challenge, a storm is brewing: the United States and its European allies are conducting "unusually frequent" diplomatic contacts. The defense ministers of about 50 countries will gather at the Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany on the 20th to discuss the supply of weapons to Ukraine, especially the pressure on Germany to supply "Leopard-2" tanks to Ukraine. "Breaking the war deadlock and driving out Russia" has become the main appeal of Ukraine and its western supporters. The Secretary-General of the United Nations Guterres said in Davos on the 18th that he believed that the Russian-Uzbekistan war would not end in the near future and that there was no opportunity for serious peace negotiations between the two sides. He warned: "We are going through the most serious geopolitical split and trust breach in generations." Putin, information Turavrov: the key word for 2022 is "war", and the hope for 2023 is "victory" The reporter of the Global Times in Russia saw at the press conference on the 18th that Lavrov's opening speech lasted more than 20 minutes, and then answered 18 questions from Russian and foreign media, involving Russia and the United States The relations between the EU, China, Central Asia, the Asia-Pacific, Latin America, Africa and other countries and regions basically summarized and elaborated the achievements of Russia's all-round diplomacy since last year by answering questions from reporters. Although the questions put forward by the media have different focuses, from Lavrov's answer, Russia's diplomatic activities in every direction can not be separated from the confrontation with the West. As Lavrov answered when asked by reporters to sum up the achievements in 2022 and the expectations in 2023 in one word: the key word for 2022 is "war", and the hope for 2023 is "victory". At the end of the press conference, Lavrov's "fighting spirit" seemed to be endless. He specifically asked the media of "unfriendly countries" for an opportunity to ask questions, which drew laughter from the reporters on the spot. Under the warm atmosphere at the scene, a group of western media reporters were slightly embarrassed, and the Japanese media were given the opportunity to ask questions. Western media also paid close attention to the press conference. The Associated Press said that Lavrov said at the "marathon" press conference that the Ukrainian crisis began long before Russia began special military operations. The West is waging war against Russia through Ukrainian agents, and Russia cannot negotiate with it on the basis of the initiative put forward by Zelensky. When asked "whether the special military operation will end this year", he said that the goal of the operation "is determined by the core legitimate interests of Russia" and will be achieved; "Like any neighboring country of Russia, Ukraine should not have the military infrastructure that threatens our country".
