A significant part of the international community now considers Russia a legitimate target for any military operation involving any type of weapons.

That’s according to Mykhailo Podolyak, the advisor to the head of the Ukrainian President’s Office, Ukrinform reports.

“Absolutely calm, balanced, objective, and based on an understanding of the spirit of international law and the principles of defensive warfare - this is the international response to the events in the Kursk region of the Rf,” reads Podolyak’s post on X.

Now, a significant part of the global community considers Rf a legitimate target for any operations and types of weapons,” the advisor stressed.
