Kravchuk assures: Putin considers Ukraine a “random thing”
The President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, considers Ukraine an accidentally formed state that actually does not exist.
The first president of Ukraine, former chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR, Leonid Kravchuk, stated this on TV channel 112, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This is how Kravchuk responded to the TV presenter’s proposal to appeal to Putin with a request to return Crimea and Donbass to the control of Kyiv, after which he will supposedly earn recognition from the Ukrainians.
“Vladimir Putin is not interested in the opinion of the Ukrainian people. He is interested in world opinion. He thinks in global categories. He wants to get, or is already getting, as he believes, among the countries that rule the world, and not just Ukraine.
Secondly, he wants to do everything to be listened to and loved by the Russian people who vote for him. But he is not interested in the opinion of Ukrainians; he thinks extremely negatively about Ukraine.
In one of his speeches at an international conference, he said that the Ukrainian state is a random thing, such a state actually does not exist,” Kravchuk said.
