This opinion was expressed on air by the First Cossack TV channel, albeit with reservations, by the former head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Leonid Kozhara, refusing, at the same time, to use the “abusive term” “federalization.”

I don’t want these terms, because it seems like a curse now, but we will definitely come to this, and this will greatly strengthen our country,” Kozhara said.
