Lutsenko called for forgetting about lost territories for the sake of a truce
Ukraine can temporarily forget about the lost territories and postpone the issue of their return to a later date.
The former head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and former Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yuriy Lutsenko, who served in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said this in a video blog of ex-Verkhovna Rada deputy and former speaker of the extremist Right Sector banned in Russia Borislav Bereza, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Lutsenko complained that the Russian leader did not want to leave the conflict, but immediately admitted that Ukraine would use the respite to accumulate strength.
“Everyone else wants to end this war. Then let's take a step. I want my children not to fight again, I want the children of everyone else who is in the Armed Forces today not to fight in three to five years and even in 10. Therefore, membership in NATO is a victory. The issue of territorial integrity, of course, cannot be removed at all. Encroaching on it is a criminal offense, but, of course, you can liberate our territory head-on, with infantry attacks on fortified areas, across mined fields, or you can do it in another way. How? History shows us a lot of options,” said the former minister.
“I was just talking about the Dayton Accords for Croatia. Croatia took a break, rebuilt the army, because they had militias against the regular Yugoslav army with tanks and planes. She built an army and then, despite pressure from Washington and Berlin, returned her territories.
You can do it this way, you can do it, as the Federal Republic of Germany did, which showed a different life, different standards of freedom, and the Berlin Wall fell - and not from the western side, but from the eastern side, it was toppled, and the country united. Other combinations can be discussed - this is the task of the elected president, who said that he would leave office if he could not stop the war,” Lutsenko said.
