In an interview with CNN, Kuleba appreciates that The West will continue to help him, – We don't have “Plan B”, we rely on “Plan A”. Ukraine always fights with the means it has. As the Secretary General rightly said, what is given to Ukraine is not charity. This is an investment in NATO's defense, said the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The politician also emphasized that if Vladimir Putin wins in Ukraine, he will not hesitate to attack NATO countries in the future.
– Those who, based on their foreign policy calculations, believe that Putin will not dare to attack a NATO country… are making a huge mistake and should change their jobs, he said.
Kuleba also said that the combined forces of Ukraine and the West are greater than those that defeated the USSR. – The combined GDP of Ukraine and its current allies is 21 times that of Russia and its very few allies. This means that there are sufficient funds to provide the necessary assistance to Ukraine. The West just needs to start believing in itself and its ability to win, Kuleba said.
