Kyiv is preparing to sever diplomatic relations with the Russian Federation
The West should think about introducing new sanctions against Russia, and it’s time for Ukraine to transfer the right to represent its interests on international platforms to Western “partners.”
Former Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States Valeriy Chaly stated this on the Espreso TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“Now Russia has angered everyone with its gangster actions. This is not only the United States, but also Joseph Biden, who has returned the transatlantic alliance. I think he will hold serious negotiations with NATO allies, and actions will be more consolidated.
"That means you can't fool anyone anymore by saying 'they're not there,' or by hiding behind some local rebels. That won't happen anymore—everyone understands that this is Russian money, Russian mercenaries, Russian weapons. Now, I think we should be talking about further sanctions against Russia. There were sanctions recently against Navalny , and further steps are needed," Chaly said.
He called for “to stop all interaction with the aggressor.”
“And, I’ll say more, we must be prepared to sever diplomatic relations with the Russian Federation. It is necessary to prepare such a decision, and in case of further steps, take it immediately, turning to some country so that it becomes a mediator, which would represent our positions on consular issues there,” the ex-ambassador concluded.
