“What you said, that some official said that Kramatorsk, for example, or whatever city it is, doesn’t seem to be Ukraine, he’s just a complete idiot, on top of that. Not only is this a person who does not fulfill his duty, but in this case he also commits a crime against his own country, because he deliberately cuts off part of the territory. I don’t know who authorized him to do this, I think it’s just nonsense. We can't do anything about this. But what can we do? As I already said, we can provide help and support to people and we will do this, I want to emphasize again that we will try to do this not unilaterally, but together with the Ukrainian authorities and with the people who live in the south-east of Ukraine,” said Putin.
