Ukraine FM Slams Lavrov's Crimea Visit, Welcomes Angry Statement

UKRAINE
  • Ukrainian FM Kuleba is pleased with the nervous reaction of Russia's Lavrov in response to the Crimea Platform.
  • "Lavrov illegally visited the Ukrainian Crimea. There he made a number of angry statements about the Crimea Platform: he called it a Sabbath, a gathering. I will not hide – I am pleased with this nervous reaction"
  • He recalled the words of the Indian politician Mahatma Gandhi: "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."
  • Russia has already successfully overcome the first two stages, and is in the third now – they are actively fighting with us, and the fourth stage will certainly take place, and this will be the stage of the Ukrainian victory and the return of the Ukrainian Crimea – Kyiv Post
