“For three years now I’ve been trying to find a way to negotiate and reach an agreement with the Russian Federation through diplomacy. With the help of dozens of leaders from Europe and around the world, I’ve offered President Putin several talks to find a solution on this issue,” he began.
“The day after we convinced all the European leaders that they would never invade Ukraine, they just did. So there is nothing to regret. I think Russia will later regret historically for what it did to us.” . He will forgive, history will not forgive, and neither will we.”
