Ukrainian ambassador counts on military victory

The Ukrainian ambassador to the UK has said the best way out of the war is “if Ukraine wins militarily”.

Russia and Ukraine have had six rounds of negotiations, Vadym Prystaiko said at a conference at King’s College London, Qazet.az reports.

He said Russia had come to negotiate with “unrealistic” and “unjustified” expectations.

"I guess the best way out of it is if Ukraine wins militarily," said the country’s ambassador to the UK.

The cost of rebuilding Ukraine once the war has ended should fall to Russia and not “Western taxpayers” he added during the Defence of Europe conference.
