Putin says Ukraine war will end only when Russia's 'goals' met

Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday that the Ukraine war would end only once Russia had achieved its aims.

"Military actions will end some day, we assume. Without a doubt, they will end once we have achieved the goals we have set for ourselves," Putin told a flagship economic forum in Saint Petersburg.

Russia has demanded control of Ukraine's eastern Donbas region as well as sweeping political and military restrictions on Ukraine.
