Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba stated that Russia's judgment on the alleged "internal conflict in Ukraine" is absurd and manipulative. He stressed the need to ask Moscow painful questions rather than wait for preparation of an answer.

Dmitry Kuleba said this during his joint briefing with the head of the OSCE, Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau.

"The only OSCE state that commits the crime of aggression is Russia. Moscow continues to claim that less than 3% of Ukraine is at war against the rest of the country. This is absurd and a manipulation and distortion of reality," Kuleba said.

He said it was time "not to prepare answers to Russia's manipulation," but to ask the question of Russia itself.

"How do you plan to provide security without harming other countries? We must ask the Russian Federation painful questions and demand answers from it," the minister stressed.

As a reminder, the Foreign Minister recently said that through their actions the Russian authorities are trying to take revenge for the loss of the USSR in the Cold War.

We would like to add that the Ukrainian foreign minister recently assessed the threat of a new Russian invasion of Ukraine, saying that the situation near the country's borders had not changed.
