On Christmas Eve, Zelenskyy cursed Putin's death, and Peskov responded to Zelenskyy: uneducated, cynical, and seems like an abnormal person.
Ukrainian President Zelenskyy in his national speech on the night of December 24, 2024, cited Ukrainian traditional beliefs that "the heavenly gates will open," and people can make wishes on this night. He said that many Ukrainians have a common wish: "May he die," and clearly pointed out that "he" refers to Russian President Putin. This statement was widely interpreted as an open curse against Putin, drawing international attention and a response from Russia.
Peskov criticized the statement as "uncivilized, cynical," and believed it reflected an abnormal mental state. Western media pointed out that such harsh words highlight the high level of hostility in the Ukraine-Russia conflict.
