I listened to Lex Friedman's podcast with Elon Musk as guest, an he used that expression several times. It seems like it's more like a slavic expression. So I don't know, perhaps he got it straight from Putin or perhaps he's just deliberately using an expression that resonates more with Russians and Ukrainians.
