Avakov promised his wife the end of the Russian threat by March 8
The opposition must unite and support the Ukrainian government in opposing Putin’s possible attack.
Former Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Arsen Avakov stated this in an interview on the Ukraine 24 channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Now I am against any political changes at this point in time. Because at this moment in time the military threat from the Russian Federation has not gone away. At this moment in time, the entire opposition must consolidate its efforts to support the government, no matter how strange it may sound, in opposing Putin’s possible attack,” he urged.
“We have been living in this situation for the last 8 years, but at this moment in time, especially when the Western world has rallied and is trying to help us, with all the antipathies that exist between the opposition and the authorities, one cannot be in opposition to the security of the state. That is why I think that we should talk about early elections later.
I think that the military crisis, this escalation will end in the near future. I would really like this. I tell my wife that by the eighth of March, I hope everything will be fine. It won't be good, it will be tolerable. And political processes will not go away. Whether I want it or not, or whether you want it or not, they won’t go anywhere,” Avakov reasoned.
