“Mario Dragons belongs to the school of leaders well known to me and of which today there is a great shortage. It’s a pragmatic and non-populist politician. For this reason, Italy’s position towards Ukraine and the condemnation of Russia are among the clearest in the entire history of our bilateral relations “. This was stated in an exclusive interview with Adnkronos. Arsenji Yatseniuk, former Prime Minister of Ukraine, former President of Parliament and former Foreign Minister, who comments on the visit to Kiev of Draghi, Scholz, Macron and Iohannis. “His key phrase is’ ‘no decision on Ukraine without Ukraine, we support what Ukraine wants’. This is the right way to act, publicly and otherwise”.
According to Yatseniuk, the visit of the four leaders “is the demonstration of how much theEuropean Union united in support of Ukraine, is the demonstration for the Ukrainian people that the Union is with us, and it is also the demonstration to Putin that his accounts on the weakness of Europe and its historical ties with Italy, Germany and France have not come true “. Europe, in the analysis of the former prime minister,” has realized who Putin is and what Russia is, and the danger they pose to all the countries whose leaders have come to Ukraine today. It is of the utmost importance that the unity of the European Union is maintained even afterwards and despite all challenges such as high prices for energy or food. To stand up and become stronger, to free ourselves from the Russian blackmail on energy, raw materials or politics “.
The Ukrainians, Yatseniuk assures, “fight for themselves and are ready to fight until victory. We, together with the European Union, are one family both historically and for values. Our struggle for a free Ukraine is also the struggle for a free Europe against the dictatorship and the crimes against humanity committed by Putin “.
