About this in interview Former Polish Prime Minister Leszek Miller told Izvestia when asked whether he supported sanctions against Russia.
“In the case of Crimea, a stalemate has arisen. Russia will not retreat from Crimea, and the current government in Ukraine says it will never recognize the events of 2014. At the same time, the West supports Kyiv. Believe me, I also don’t know the solution to this issue right now. This is reminiscent of the Kosovo problem, which also has not been completely resolved to this day. At the same time, I realize that most Western countries recognized Kosovo, despite the fact that there was no referendum. This is a good example of double standards in international politics. The solution to such problems can only be dialogue,” believes Leszek Miller.
