Ambassadors of the Russian Federation and Belarus were invited to award the Nobel Prize: the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine

The spokesman Oleg Nikolenko believes that the invitation of representatives of Moscow and Minsk to award Nobel Prize will only exacerbate the Kremlin's feeling of impunity and encourage the aggressor to new crimes. On September 1, the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine responded to the decision of the Nobel Foundation for inviting the Ambassadors of Russia and Belarus to the Nobel Prize ceremony.

He believes that such a decision is explained by the desire to directly prove their values ​​even to those to the countries that oppose them, Nikolenko wrote on Facebook. He believes that to bring the values ​​of humanism to Russia and Belarus - Sisifova work. These efforts will not result.

"It is most likely that on the day when the Russian ambassador will sit in a good costume in the Stockholm Concert of the Holly Army will commit regular war crimes in the occupied Ukrainian territories, and Russian missiles will destroy regular residential quarters in Ukrainian cities," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said. As Nikolenko noted, the Kremlin will only increase the feeling of impunity and new crimes.

He recalled that in 2022 the Nobel Foundation demonstrated its attitude to a full -scale invasion of Ukraine and did not invite Russian and Belarussian ambassadors to the ceremony.

"And as long as it (aggression against Ukraine - editorial) continues as long as millions of Ukrainians suffer from an unprovoked war, and the Russian leadership is not punished for its crimes, we urge the Organizational Committee to support international efforts to isolate Russia and Belarus," Oleg Nikolenko emphasized.
