I should have invaded Ukraine earlier, Putin tells Russians in TV marathon

In a recent interview, Russian President Vladimir Putin admitted that Russia should have launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine earlier and been better prepared for the war. He also stated that the West's sanctions have had a negative impact on the Russian economy and that he is open to peace talks with Ukraine.
Some analysts have interpreted Putin's comments as an admission of failure and a sign that the war is not going according to plan for Russia. Others believe that Putin is simply trying to justify the war to the Russian people and to rally support for his government.
The war in Ukraine has been ongoing since February 24, 2022. It has resulted in the deaths of thousands of people and the displacement of millions more. The war has also had a significant impact on the global economy, leading to rising energy prices and food shortages.
There is no easy solution to the conflict in Ukraine. Both sides have a lot to lose if the war continues. It is important that the international community continues to work towards a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
