According to Kuleba, the best way to respond to Putin’s ultimatums about Ukraine not joining NATO is to ignore them.
“In fact, it’s foolish to think that providing such a guarantee would make Putin even a little less aggressive. History proves that assurances of non-alignedness of Ukraine or any other country in the region in no way satisfy Putin’s appetites: on the contrary, they further inflame. to such ultimatums – to ignore them altogether, “Kuleba said.
At the same time, the Foreign Minister noted that back in 2010, Ukraine secured its non-aligned status. Only in 2013, during the Revolution of Dignity, the country raised the issue of economic and political integration with the EU.
“If non-alignedness did not stop Putin from attacking Ukraine in 2014, then it is difficult to imagine how she could stop him now,” Kuleba added.
