He stated that it was Russia that started the war with the invasion of Ukraine, and that it is President Vladimir Putin’s “single-minded attempt to obliterate Ukraine and subjugate its people that is prolonging the war.” – Russia’s imperialist ambitions are obvious, and for Russia the only solution is Ukraine’s complete capitulation, he said and maintained that the war would end tomorrow if Russia withdrew its forces from Ukraine.
