"Our country has never been the one to initiate the use of force": the President on using force to settle arguments in the modern era

Our country has never been the one to initiate the use of force: we only are forced to do that when it becomes clear that our opponent is acting aggressively and is not willing to listen to any type of argument. And whenever necessary, we will take any measure we need and have to do to protect Russia and our citizens, and we will always achieve our goals.
