No compromise on Ukraine's territorial integrity – President's Office

The question of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity cannot be the subject of any compromise on ending the war.

That's according to Andrii Sybiha, Deputy Head of the Ukrainian President's Office, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"There will be no 'Minsk-2' or 'Minsk-3.' In principle, there can be no compromise on territorial integrity and sovereignty. These are fundamental things," he said.

Sybiha also said that the world continues to stand with Ukraine in order to achieve victory, and this support will be growing. He drew such conclusions on the basis of recent decisions, including by the United States and the European Union, on the allocation of additional funds to support Ukraine.

On May 17, Mykhailo Podoliak, an adviser to the head of the President's Office, said that negotiations between Ukraine and Russia had been suspended due to Russia's misunderstanding of the real state of affairs.

On February 24, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops are shelling and destroying critical infrastructure and residential areas of Ukrainian cities, towns and villages using artillery, multiple rocket launchers, air bombs and ballistic missiles.
