Vladimir Putin
Russian President Vladimir Putin has cast the strikes on Ukrainian energy facilities as a response to Kyiv for targeting Russian oil refineries.
The journalist’s 2023 arrest in Russia has left a void of “stolen stories, stolen joys, stolen memories,” The Wall Street Journal wrote.
Russian President Vladimir Putin dismissed the warning as “provocative” fearmongering from the West.
The Islamic State group’s Afghanistan branch claimed responsibility for Friday’s attack in a statement posted on affiliated channels on social media.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
The Wall Street Journal reporter is among several Americans who have been detained in Russia over questionable charges.
President Vladimir Putin is basking in a victory that was never in doubt, as officials said he won reelection with an overwhelming number of votes.
The former president whiffed on an easy chance to criticize the Russian strongman over the death of Alexei Navalny.
Polling happened in a tightly controlled environment where Putin only faces competition from three token rivals and any public criticism of him or his war in Ukraine is stifled.
The “Daily Show” correspondent declared that “anything can happen” in the presidential race.
His statement was another blunt warning to the West ahead of a presidential vote this week in which he's all but certain to win reelection.
