"We are adults. We must know that Russia has interfered, is interfering and will interfere on our land. And Ukraine itself will not stop it,” he said, adding that this will continue until “the entire community stops Russia, Putin.”
“Russia will not be different. Recently the memoirs of Alexei Tolstoy were published. He said: There are two Russias. Kievan Rus is a Rus that professes European principles. And Muscovite Rus' is wild Mongolian, which never respected European principles, and has always been an enemy of Europe. I think that Europe should hear these words,” Kravchuk emphasized.
In his opinion, official Kyiv is absolutely correct in not introducing martial law in Donbass, leaving the opportunity for diplomatic maneuver.
“Our government did not make serious mistakes in the East... A direct clash between the armies of two powers is the beginning of a clash of the third world war,” Kravchuk said.
