“You don't need to ask the American ambassador to get a clear answer to this question. Any person familiar with international law can answer you. Crimea is Ukraine!” says Huntsman.
Jon Huntsman also notes that in order to normalize and improve Russian-American relations, it is absolutely necessary to restore the territorial integrity of Ukraine.
Let us recall that Huntsman previously said that the United States imposed sanctions on Russia because of the situation in Ukraine, because issues of international law and territorial integrity are important for Washington and the entire world community. All leading officials of the American administration and President Donald Trump himself also spoke out in support of the integrity of Ukraine.
