2022 Kremlin speech of Vladimir Putin

What information there is here can be included in Annexation of Southern and Eastern Ukraine or elsewhere. If that article subsection gets filled out a bit more, I would wholeheartedly support a move to a different article - but there isn't much here at the moment. – QueenofBithynia (talk) 21:50, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge to Annexation of Southern and Eastern Ukraine; better covered in context, and the target article isn't terribly long. That said, this almost certainly passes the 10-year test, so I agree that if the main article becomes too plump it can be split back out by consensus. Ovinus (talk) 22:58, 6 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Re Liz: Since this discussion began, the target article was indeed redirected to Annexation of southeastern Ukraine by the Russian Federation, so I'd merge it into the same section there. Ovinus (talk) 20:14, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Military, Politics, Russia,  and Ukraine. Shellwood (talk) 07:33, 7 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Merge per above. Reywas92Talk 14:03, 7 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Neutral, as the original creator of the article. I think this article has gathered enough independent media coverage for being a standalone article, as many news article covered the speech in itself. However, I also understand the sentiment behind others as the annexation article isn't very long. The Account 2 (talk) 16:13, 7 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks for understanding. I agree that there has been enough coverage of the speech to warrant a standalone article at some point, but I think that for the time being it should be merged and expanded in the main article before becoming a WP:SPINOFF. – QueenofBithynia (talk) 13:34, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting to confirm. Annexation of Southern and Eastern Ukraine is a redirect. Did you mean, Annexation of southeastern Ukraine by the Russian Federation? Is this still a preferred Merge target, QueenofBithynia, Radzy0, Reywas92, Ovinus and The Account 2? Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 22:48, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Merge per above. Radzy0 (talk) 00:06, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Comment: If we keep this article, we need to rename it to something more specific than "2022 Kremlin speech of Vladimir Putin". Putin has given numerous speeches at the Kremlin in 2022. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 01:57, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
 * It looks like the page has been moved again, this time to Russian annexation of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. I just want confirmation that this is the preferred Merge target. Liz Read! Talk! 07:23, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
