Ukraine in Arabic | Ukraine doesn’t attack Russian troops in the east because of the threat of a full-fledged war
KYIV/Ukraine in Arabic/ Ukraine faces all-out war with Russia if it attempts to attack the columns of Russian military vehicles entering the east of the country, Presidential Administration Deputy Head Valeriy Chaliy said on Monday.
Chaliy was speaking on Ukrainian television channel ICTV’s Svoboda Slova (Freedom of Speech) program on Monday night.
"Our task is to avoid a full-scale war in the center of Europe,” Chaliy said.
“An attack on the columns of Russian military equipment could mean the beginning of a war with the use of aviation. You must understand that this will lead to the aggravation of the situation, and it will be another thing entirely."
"If the situation worsens, Ukraine will lose the support of its European partners," Chaliy said.
