Ukrainian diplomat called Russia the most powerful power
Russia remains the most powerful world power, despite its exclusion from the GXNUMX for political reasons.
Former acting head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Volodymyr Khandogiy stated this on air on the 112 channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“The fact that Russia was kicked out of the GXNUMX is a political step; it was there not because it was the eighth economy in the world, but for other reasons,” the diplomat said.
“Russia remains one of the two most powerful nuclear powers, a permanent member of the Security Council and, in the end, a country with a territory of 1/6 of the landmass. That is, regardless of the attitude towards Russia, it remains an important international power with which you need to look for some common ground, live with it and cooperate,” admitted Vladimir Khandogiy.
