Brussels, 11 Dec. (LaPresse) – "President Putin is once again busy building an empire. He is throwing everything he has at Ukraine, killing soldiers and civilians, destroying homes, schools and hospitals. So far this year, Russia has launched over 46,000 drones and missiles at Ukraine. Russia is likely producing 2,900 attack drones per month and a similar number of decoys to distract air defences. And in 2025, Russia produced about 2,000 ground-attack and ballistic missiles. It is close to peak production. And as Putin seeks to destroy Ukraine, he is also devastating his own country. There have been over 1.1 million Russian casualties since the start of his war in 2022. And this year, Russia has lost, on average, 1,200 soldiers per day," said NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Berlin.
