Kuleba: Giving Ukraine European prospects is best response to Russia

European Union's best response to Russia's aggressive actions may be giving Ukraine clear European prospects to convince Putin that Ukraine's European course is irreversible.

"I told my colleagues that the best strategic decision they can make now is to give Ukraine European prospects. This will be a clear signal to President Putin: no matter how hard he tries, Ukraine's movement is irreversible, and no one will leave Ukraine face to face with Russia," Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba said at a press conference following his participation in the EU Foreign Affairs Council in Brussels today, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

According to him, such a step by the European Union will show Ukrainian people that Ukraine is confidently moving towards the European family of peace and prosperity in which it is waited for.

As reported, the EU Foreign Affairs Council meets in Brussels today to discuss, among other things, the security crisis caused by Russia's military build-up along Ukraine's borders.
