Ukraine will continue to release its territories in spite of any statements by Russia-Mikhail Podolyak in an interview with Politico

The attempt of annexation by Russia to the territories of four Ukrainian regions will in no way influence Ukraine's determination to liberate all its lands. This was stated by the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office of Ukraine Mikhail Podolyak in an interview with Politico. "For our plans (annexation by Russia. - Ed. ) Not matter," said Mikhail Podolyak, adding: "The people must release all their territories.

" The adviser to the head of the head of state also noted that the mobilization, which the President of the Russian Federation recently declared, testifies that the professional army ended in Russia. “Absolutely unprepared people come to replace this army. The human resource was thrown into the front, and it will simply be destroyed, ”he said. According to the adviser to the head of the Presidential Office, Ukraine is even profitable that Russia has declared this mobilization.

"It shows the people of Russia that the country is really at war, that it is not very good in this war and that the Russians themselves will pay a big price," said Mikhail Podolyak. In addition, in his opinion, mobilization in Russia gives Ukraine the reason to call Western partners to strengthen military support.

"For example, another 100 missiles of 155 mm caliber would solve the problem, sorry for the such statement, the additional human resources that Russia uses on the battlefield," said adviser to the Presidential Office Head. The US authorities have already announced the provision of another $ 1. 1 billion defense support for Ukraine, including 18 additional high-mobility missile and artillery systems (HIMARS). In these circumstances, there is one map that can be played in this war: nuclear weapons.

But Mikhail Podolyak considers her use against a non -nuclear state. At the same time, the Ukrainian side calls on the West countries to precisely warn Russia about the effects of nuclear or chemical weapons. According to Mikhail Podolyak, it is necessary to apply "very rigid measures aimed at destroying Russia's defense infrastructure. " Meanwhile, Ukraine will "continue to do its work" on the liberation of its territory, said Mikhail Podolyak.
