Ukraine's Foreign Minister Addresses World after Russian Missile Attack: Neutrality Is Now Same as Complicity
After the recent missile attack launched by the Russian Federation, Dmytro Kuleba, the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, has called it barbarism and pointed out that a neutral stance on this war looked strange.
"Senseless barbarism. These are the only words that come to mind seeing Russia launch another missile barrage at peaceful Ukrainian cities ahead of New Year. There can be no ‘neutrality’ in the face of such massive war crimes. Pretending to be ‘neutral’ equals taking Russia’s side," Dmytro Kuleba wrote on Twitter.
