The ex-Minister of Defense of Ukraine insists: The fighting must be transferred to the territory of the Russian Federation!
Kyiv, October 18 (PolitNavigator, Vladimir Raichenko) – Former Minister of Defense of Ukraine under President Yushchenko, and now the leader of the Civil Position party, Anatoly Gritsenko is ready to lose the support of the West, but not give up his initiative to transfer the war to Russian territory.
He stated this in an interview with the Focus weekly, answering the question whether he is afraid that the implementation of his proposal will bring more harm to Ukraine than good.

“I believe that if Ukrainian settlements are hit with Grad, Smerch or Hurricane, and these installations are located outside the borders of our territory, they must be destroyed by special forces,” Gritsenko answered.
He is not afraid of the potential loss of diplomatic and financial support from the West in the event of attacks by Ukrainian special forces on Russian territory.
“This means we can do without Western support,” says the ex-minister of defense. – Do you propose to calmly watch as our people are killed and our cities are destroyed? We shouldn't allow this. And the West must understand that Putin is Hitler. It is necessary to create an anti-Putin coalition, and not embrace him and think that he can be stopped diplomatically.”
As PolitNavigator reported, Anatoly Gritsenko previously called for military action on Russian territory on a political talk show.
