The Russian president made the claim while drinking champagne at a glitzy Kremlin reception for servicemen called ‘Heroes of Russia’ on Thursday.
He said: ‘There is a lot of noise now about our strikes on the energy infrastructure [of Ukraine]. Yes, we are doing it.Russia is seeking to cut off Ukraine’s energy supplies and destroy infrastructure as winter approaches with missile attacks. The strikes plunged parts of Ukraine back into freezing darkness with temperatures now firmly below zero Celsius.
