Kremlin: War in Ukraine to Continue Until 'Pre-1989 European Order' Restored

Russian officials state Moscow no longer wages war 'with white gloves' and will persist until its goal of restoring a pre-1989 European order, implying a return to Soviet-era influence, is achieved. This rhetoric signals an escalation in stated war aims, moving beyond territorial claims to a broader revisionist agenda. The claim is attributed to Kremlin statements via Polish media, with no independent corroboration.
