Russian President Vladimir Putin assured on Monday that there is "no doubt" his military's operations in Ukraine "will achieve results." He added that Russia would have used peaceful means to solve the issues in Donbas "if there was at least one chance" to do it, APA's Moscow correspondent reports.

"But they didn’t leave us this chance," Putin said, apparently referencing the Ukrainian government. He repeated the claim that Russia "had no other choice" in the matter.
