In Kyiv they fear that it will now fly from Putin to the Ukrainian gates
By breaking the Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation with Russia, Kyiv gave Moscow a free hand. Ukrainian political scientist Ruslan Bortnik expressed this opinion on the NewsOne channel, reports the PolitNavigator correspondent.
“We gave a pass to Russia. Now she has in her hands a torn Great Treaty, on which many other treaties of socio-economic, legal and any other nature are based; These include industry agreements. Now Russia will choose how to respond to us, which agreements to break on this basis, using the break of the Great Treaty - simply as a motive, a basis, and which ones not to break,” Bortnik said.
“And what answer Russia will give us, what the consequences of this gap will be, does not depend on us. It feels like we just played along with the enemy, rolled the ball to him, and they will score goals for us, and this is the greatest tragedy of our politician, we often do such things,” Bortnik said.
We will remind, earlier The Verkhovna Rada officially terminated the agreement “On friendship and cooperation with the Russian Federation” - the so-called “Great Treaty”, by signing which in the late 1990s, Russia agreed to the Ukrainian status of Crimea in exchange for the neutral status of Ukraine and respect for the rights of the Russian-speaking population.
Bogdan Bezpalko, a member of the Council on Interethnic Relations under the President of the Russian Federation, said that the rupture of this agreement will give Russia the full right to recognize the LDPR.
