Brussels - Ukrainian Ambassador-at-Large Dmytro Kuleba and Deputy Secretary of the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council Oleksandr Lytvynenko have attended a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Commission at the level of ambassadors in Brussels.

“My first piece of advice is to prepare for the worst,” Kuleba reporters after the meeting on Monday, Nov. 17.

“The worst thing with the Russians is that they have no red lines, which they could have not crossed,” he added.

Ukraine’s representatives said that Russia was using various methods in information warfare.

“Unfortunately, Russia is using new and old technology in information warfare, which is why we call it a hybrid war,” Lytvynenko said.

Kuleba noted that he would also advise residents of European countries and politicians to closely monitor not only the broadcasting of Russia’s Russia Today English-language television channel, but also the statements of speakers, as well as the holding of political campaigns in which issues of politics and social structure can be intentionally connected.

“Russia, first of all, wants to undermine the confidence of Europeans in their authorities. It is a question of creating a parallel reality in order to make Russia dominant in the world,” Kuleba said.
