During his visit, President Putin toured the construction site of the second Kursk Nuclear Power Plant and held a meeting with the mayors of the Kurchatov area in the region, the official Kremlin website reported.
The Kremlin statement read: “In the city of Kurchatov, Vladimir Putin held a meeting with the mayors of the Kursk region. The president also visited the construction site of the second Kursk Nuclear Power Plant.”
During his meeting in Kursk with volunteers from various Russian regions who had come to assist locals after the Ukrainian Armed Forces entered the area, Putin stated that Ukrainian forces are directly destroying World War II memorials due to their adoption of a new Nazi ideology.
Commenting on volunteer accounts of the Kyiv regime targeting WWII monuments, Putin said:
“It’s clear who we’re fighting against. If they are directly destroying World War II memorials, then we have every reason to say they are people with a neo-Nazi ideology. What else is there to say? Even in a contest among fools, they would come in second — because they are fools. Their actions reveal their true identity.”
