Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accuses Putin of wanting to “blame” Ukraine. “Putin and the other bastards are just trying to shift the blame to someone else,” the Ukrainian president said in his message.

The attack on the Crocus City Hall concert hall, in a close suburb of the capital, is the deadliest in Russia in twenty years, as well as the bloodiest to have been claimed by ISIS in Europe. However, during a television speech, Vladimir Putin made no mention of the involvement of the jihadist group.
