Putin at SCO Summit: Peace in Ukraine Requires Addressing Root Causes and Restoring Security Balance
Monday, 1 September 2025 () Russian President Vladimir Putin declared at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit in Tianjin that resolving the conflict in Ukraine requires removing its root causes and restoring a balance of power in the field of security. Putin stressed that the Ukrainian crisis did not arise because of what the West calls “Russia’s attack on Ukraine,” but because of the 2014 coup in Kyiv, which, he said, was organized and supported by Western powers. “And then came the attempts to use military force to suppress those regions and those people in Ukraine who did not accept or support the coup,” Putin emphasized. NATO Expansion as Key Trigger The Russian president also pointed to repeated Western attempts to draw Kyiv into NATO as one of the main causes of the conflict. He reminded the audience that Moscow has consistently warned that Ukraine’s accession to the Alliance represents a direct threat to Russian security.
