US asks Putin to keep ‘acknowledging reality’ after ‘war’ reference

WASHINGTON, 25 December 2022, (TON): The United States on Friday derisively called on Russian President Vladimir Putin to acknowledge reality and pull troops from Ukraine after he finally called the conflict a war.

Since Putin ordered the invasion in February, Russia has officially spoken of a “special military operation” and imposed a law that criminalizes what authorities call misleading terminology.

But at a news conference, Putin himself used the word “war” as he said that he hoped to end it as soon as possible.
