"Let's be honest: Ukraine will not be able to return the territories in the near future, especially by military means. Second - We are not welcome in those territories. Let's be honest, the people who live today in Donetsk, Lugansk and so on, for the most part, since 14, and especially since 17, when all economic relations between Ukraine and the uncontrolled territories were simply cut off, when communications and so on with these self-proclaimed republics were blocked, they do not live by Kyiv time, they do not orient themselves toward Kyiv.

A whole generation of people has grown up who no longer know what Ukraine is or vaguely remember what Ukraine is. We are truly not welcome there. And the ephemeral statements that we will expand ours, that we will reach the borders of 91 – this is boasting and an absolute lie. We will not return Crimea or Donbass in the near future“- said Bondarenko.
