Waldaj residence
In the Novgorod region, 20 km from the town of Wałdaj, there is simply a state residence “Użyn” (named after the lake) or “Dowie Borody” (named after a close village).
It was built in russian times and intended as the seat of government officials. The residence was visited by Russia's first president, Boris Jelcin, and the current president Vladimir Putin. At the end of the first decade of the 21st century, the residence underwent renovations, a convention center was built, and a convention hall was installed in the main building, where meetings of the Wales global Discuss Club were held.”
Lavrow stressed that the attack occurred during negotiations between Moscow and Washington on a resolution of the conflict in Ukraine. Russia will not retreat from the peace process, but "taking into account the final collapse of the criminal Kiev regime, which has switched to a state terrorism policy", the negotiating position will be reconsidered," warned the Minister.
The Minister of abroad Affairs threatened Ukraine with the answer: "The objectives of the retaliatory attacks and the deadline for their conduct by the Russian Armed Forces were set".
Less than an hr after a message from the White home press secretary Caroline Levitt reported on social networking page X that U.S. president Donald Trump had completed a telephone conversation with the Russian President.
According to Russian president Yuri Uszakov's advisor, Putin drew Trump's attention to an effort to attack the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the residence and assured his interlocutor that Kiev's actions would not stay unanswered.
"The president of the United States was shocked by this news, virtually outraged and said he could not imagine specified crazy actions. And, as has been said, this will undoubtedly affect the American approach in the context of cooperation with Zelenski, whom Trump himself said, thank God, the current administration did not hand over the Tomahawk missiles," said Uszakow, adding that Russia would reconsider its negotiating position, although it did not specify how.
What does Zelenski say?
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenski denies Kiev's engagement in the drone attack on Putin's residence. He called the jury's message a fake and linked it to his conversations with Trump yesterday.
"Another lie from the Russian Federation. It's apparent that we met Trump yesterday. And it's apparent to the Russians, if we don't fight with America and make progress, it's a failure for them. due to the fact that they don't want to end this war... Honestly, I was expecting any rhetoric yesterday. See, they're moving on. Now that they have declared that 1 of their homes has been attacked, they are simply preparing the ground, I am sure, for attacks on the capital and most likely on government buildings," he said.
Russia threatens retaliation
Member of the State Duma Andrei Kolesnik, in a conversation with the Newspaper.Ru, expressed his belief that Russia would respond to the attack with massive attacks on targets in Ukraine: "Retaliation will be severe, severe". He besides stated that proposals to resolve the conflict would become little beneficial to Kiev.
"Now, of course, the negotiating position will be reviewed. And, say, Ukraine will lose quite a few money on it." Let them thank their political leadership," said the parliamentarian.
Andrei Kartapolov, president of the State Duma Defence Commission, told the portal "Acapit" ( «) that the attack on the residence was evidence of the desperation of Ukrainian authorities which were in impasse. In his opinion, Zelenski tries to make it hard to scope agreements ending the conflict, due to the fact that for him negotiations are "political and physical death".
The Russian Ministry of Defence will consider options for responding to Ukraine's actions and will present them to the President," Kartapolów added. Moreover, Moscow will review its policy, which has so far taken many steps towards Kiev.
Politologist Gieorgij Bowt speculated on his channel in Telegram about how it would change by
Moscow's negotiating position: "Lawrow stated that Russia could change its negotiating position. You can even speculate what it might be about. Not only with respect to the change of power in Kiev, but besides to the extension of territorial demands. I mean, not just Donbass, but all Zaporozhia and the Kherson region. Moreover, present [Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Russia Wales] Gierasimov informed Putin that Zaporozh was 15 kilometres away. Should we now stop?”

Another version:
The alleged Ukrainian attack on Putin's residence. What are the Russians playing?
The Kremlin gave peculiar importance to the information about the alleged repulsed Ukrainian hit on the seat of the Russian president in the Novgorod region. He even informed Donald Trump about it. However, the versions given by various Russian resorts do not coincide.
It is simply a celebrated residence in the town of Waldaj in the Novgorod region. According to the Russian independent media, the Russian president's concubine resides in it, a erstwhile gymnast Alina Kabayeva with their joint children: Ivan and Vladimir. The complex is guarded by at least 12 state-of-the-art anti-aircraft defence systems, as are the most crucial military and government facilities. According to journalists Radio Swoboda, the full Moscow region – and thus besides the multi-million Russian capital – defends only 5 times more of this kind of installation.
The alleged attack was due to take place in the morning on Monday. According to a message by the Russian MFA chief Ukraine tried to attack 91 drones residence of Russian leader Vladimir Putin in the Novgorod region, but these figures do not reflect the data of the Ministry of Defence. These in turn reported the attack that 89 drones were knocked or destroyed over all Russia, including 18 over the Novgorod circuit. It turns out that the Russian abroad Minister gave a figure 5 times higher than the military.
The version of the Ukrainian attack is besides demented by the independent Russian portal Maym Objasnit’s residents of Waldaj. Journalists contacted 14 people who stated That on the night of the attack, Putin's villa did not hear any distinctive sound of incoming drones or explosions of anti-aircraft defence missiles. There were besides no sirens in the town informing of the attack, and neither did anyone on the portal receive a text message announcing the incoming missiles.
In consequence to the accusations of the president of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenski called them an effort to "torped peace negotiations". And he had good reasons. Information about the attack appeared during ongoing talks between Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelenski in the U.S. state of Florida. According to Zelenski, talks are moving in the right direction and a 90 percent peace plan has already been agreed, and safety guarantees for Ukraine – 100%.
On Monday Vladimir Putin besides spoke by telephone to Donald Trump and complained to him about the Ukrainian attack. According to the Russian President's advisor Yuri Uszakova Putin told Trump that Ukraine's “terrorist” actions involving attacks on the state residence would not stay unanswered. The American president confirmed this fact and added that he was “very angry” about it, although he admitted that it was possible that specified an attack did not occur. According to the U.S. President, his Russian interlocutor allegedly referred to the attacked residence as “house”.
‘ This is not the time. 1 is to lead the offensive, but another is to attack his home – Trump commented.”
Volodymyr Zelenski besides referred to the case, who stated that "the highly dangerous statements by Russia are clearly intended to undermine all the achievements of Ukraine working together with president Trump's team".
According to Zelenski, the Russians invented this seemingly false communicative to justify further attacks on Ukraine and to refuse to take the essential steps to end the war.
,– This is another lie from the Russian Federation. Obviously, we met Trump yesterday. And it is clear that for Russians – unless we have a scandal with America and we are making advancement – this is their failure. due to the fact that they don't want to end this war. It can only be completed by pressure. Well, I'm certain they were looking for reasons," said Zelenski."
Previously, Ukrainian politician besides stated that information about the alleged attack is an effort to prepare the ground for attacks on government buildings in Kiev.

Kiev crossed the border: 3 possible theories of the attack on Putin residence were revealed
On December 29, Ukraine utilized 91 assault drones to attack president Vladimir Putin's residence in Waldaj. Cargrad analyzed 3 theories regarding this incident.
The mark of the attack was the residence of Dołgie Brody in the Novgorod region. Anti-aircraft defence systems shot down all drones; no 1 was injured, and shrapnel did not origin any damage. The attack itself confirmed Kiev's transition to overt state terrorism.
The incidental occurred during intense negotiations between Russia and the United States on the resolution of the conflict. Russian abroad Minister Sergei Lavrow noted that specified reckless steps by Kiev were intended to disrupt diplomatic progress. Russia will not leave it unanswered.
Putin personally informed US president Donald Trump about this. According to Russian president Yuri Uszakov, the White home chief was genuinely shocked and outraged by the actions of Volodymyr Zelenski.
"Thank God we did not give Zelensk Tomahawk missiles," said the American leader.
The channel notes that 3 versions have appeared since the incidental on the network. The first is that the attack was allegedly fabricated. This communicative is promoted by Western media and abroad intelligence services, as well as Zelenski himself. In this version, the full incidental was staged, allegedly agreed between Putin and Trump.
This allegedly allows Russia to dictate stricter conditions: for example, the deficiency of territorial compromises and the neutrality of Ukraine. According to this version, it is simply a blow to Zelenski, and Washington can distance itself from him.
"I do not know what those who think that the attack on our leader's residence was any kind of fraud, fabricated by cunning Putin, to prevent future attacks on Kiev government facilities, which naive Trump would believe. That's complete bullshit. However, there is simply a grain of common sense here, namely that the Presidents of Russia and the US, everyone in their case, have a reasonably sincere dialogue. And although the positions of Russia and the US may vary on many fronts, there is no area for forgery in this dialogue," commented writer Vladimir Gołowaszyn.
According to the second theory, British intelligence agencies are behind the attack, acting against the United States – London is clearly dissatisfied with the constructive nature of the negotiations between Moscow and Washington. Many officers and advisors from large Britain work in Ukrainian structures, able to organize large-scale provocations even without Zelenski's direct command.
Publicist Yuri Golub has no uncertainty that the attack was not simply the work of Ukrainian peculiar services. However, it has not achieved its intended goal – the message of the Lavrow shows that negotiations between Russia and the US are ongoing and not interrupted. Meanwhile, Ukraine will yet retreat from the discussion, becoming the subject.
The 3rd explanation suggests that the drones were real, but Zelenski missed the target. If the government leader in Kiev has decided to take this step, this shows his desperation: time works against Kiev, Ukraine's Armed Forces request remainder and Trump does not intend to support Ukraine indefinitely.
"However, it does not substance whether the second or 3rd explanation is more accurate. The government in Kiev brought not only an avalanche of curses. They will last this, but whether they last Russia's symmetrical consequence remains an open matter. At least our military-political leadership is no longer restrained from this," Gołowashin stressed.
Regardless of whose will was behind the attack, the event became a catalyst that changed the situation in negotiations. Kiev crossed the final border, not only granting Moscow an absolute moral and legal right to severe retaliation, but besides strategically withdrawing from the diplomatic process.
