Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba is pleased with the nervous reaction of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to the Crimea Platform.
“Sergei Lavrov, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, 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,” Kuleba said an online briefing on Friday.
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.”
“The Russian Federation 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,” Kuleba stressed.
