“Russia’s attempts to seize all of Ukraine are inevitable. They didn't stop. They consider the fact that they are on Perekop today to be temporary for themselves. Like us, but we are fighting for the de-occupation of our territories in the east and Crimea, and they want to seize all of Ukraine.
Various methods - political, corruption, intelligence services, direct aggression, hybrid war, economic pressure, all of them will be used to destroy Ukrainian statehood, and in the future - to destroy the Ukrainian nation, in particular, the Crimean Tatar people, so that this does not happen.
For them, we are a threat to their existence and they know that next to us they will never revive their bloody empire, because, excuse me, this is a war of survival.
Unfortunately, not everyone understands this on mainland Ukraine. Someone thinks that the war is temporary, then we’ll make peace - no, we will never be able to continue to coexist with this state. Someone will remain alone in the end,” Babin said.
