I am very confused by your comment. Are you saying Putin never said that, or are you saying he was lying?

From Putin's actual mouth:

ON DECISION TO LAUNCH 'SPECIAL MILITARY OPERATION'

"We saw military infrastructure being ramped up, hundreds of military advisers working and regular deliveries of modern weapons from NATO. (The level of) danger was increasing every day. Russia preventively rebuffed the aggressor. It was necessary, timely and ... right. The decision of a sovereign, strong, independent country."

Just to be clear, he definitely said that, but he was definitely lying.

That's my point. We know why they SAID they did it, we also know it's not true. So why continue to parrot the Russian propaganda?
