They did and some of us watched it live (we are told) on russian state TV in 2022,2023 and just last month. Please provide primary sources that contradict what I witnessed.
still waiting for that official statement bud, should be really easy to find since you obviously wouldn't make things up
Wrong person, you want @sweng@programming.dev
But yes, if you want to have a official statement watch the victory day parade speech putin made.
Again, feel free to link to the part of the parade where Putin says what you two are claiming he said. Should be really easy to do since it's publicly available.
Should be, go nuts look it up.
I can't look up what does not exist. There is no such statement, you made it up and now you're asking me to prove a negative.

Oh yeah, that is how that must work for you every statement you make is true and anyone else needs to provide proof otherwise, and it does not count if you don't agree.
Thank you for confirming that you are unable to provide a specific quote that substantiates your claims.

"We will not allow anyone to threaten us. Our strategic forces are always in a state of combat readiness.”
I know you will never be satisfied, so I will just keep doing this until you provide proof that russia is stronger now then before Feb 2022.
If you believe that quote constitutes a threat to attack the west, which is what you claimed earlier in this thread, then it's pretty clear there's no point continuing the discussion.
No I claimed that putin (russia) has threatened the west with strategic weapons (well implied it anyway, I never made any direct claims). Now you think that somehow multiple nations saying putin has threaten them does not count (for some reason), Putin putting on a big show and dance about strategic weapon drills means nothing, that during many speeches putin eluding to using those weapons means nothing, oh and even after you yourself said "Russia already stated that they will do precisely that, so this moves us one step closer to a nuclear holocaust. Hope it was worth it." somehow that is not a threat?
Oh there is no point of continuing the discussion but I know you will respond anyway.
