We are united when it appears dangerous, the country united, a nation united. And I think now the situation is quite stable. Of course, this was how ..... because when appeared the non-controlled strong power. This is not good for the state and in this case, I think the contemporary situation decides this problem for the united nations, not for United Nations in New York, but for the united nations in Russia. And I think its contemporary situation is quite well," he added.Shvydkoy said that a lot of people expecting that there is a good chance for Ukrainian military services is not true.

The unbounded ambitions and personal interests have led to treason and a betrayal of the country and its people," Putin was quoted as saying by TASS.Putin in his address said "All kinds of political adventurers and foreign forces, who divided the country and tore it apart, profited from their own interests. We will not let this happen again. We will protect our people and our statehood from threats, including internal treachery," CNN reported."Those who carry deliberately on a path of treason, preparing an armed rebellion when you were preparing terrorist attacks, will be punished," Putin said. He said that "any internal turmoil" is a "deadly threat" to Russia's statehood and Moscow's actions to protect the homeland. He noted that such a threat will "face a severe response."Earlier on Saturday, Yevgeny Prigozhin said his forces have taken control of military facilities, including the airfield in Rostov-on-Don, CNN reported.
