«We are so large European country that we cannot be on an island that is separated from the European space», - said D.Lubkivkiy.
According to the deputy foreign minister, to define prospects of the country’s development, it's essential clearly to assess what's going on.
«What is going in the east of Ukraine? Who is the RF for us? What is the political regime in the RF? We clearly understand that present authoritarian regime of the RF is an opponent of Ukraine, is an aggressor who encourages international terrorism, that puts pressure on Ukraine by the means of military conflict in the East, and this regime has committed an act of occupation of our territories. Such clarity of our assessment will allow us to see our perspective", - D.Lubkivskiy said.
