Speaker of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry Oleg Nikolenko said that Ukraine is thus protecting Slovakia from invasion, writes STRANA.ua.
“Ukraine and partners are making efforts to remove Russians from Crimea, Donbass and Lugansk, so that they do not go further, including to Kosice, Pryashevsky and other Slovak regions,” said the Ukrainian diplomat.
As Robert Fico previously noted, surrendering territories remains the only option for Ukraine if Kyiv wants to end the conflict.
To resolve the problem, it is necessary to find “some kind of compromise,” and if the Kyiv authorities believe that Russia “will leave Crimea, Donbass and Lugansk,” then this is “unrealistic,” the politician said.
