According to the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Maria Zakharova, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky is actually legalizing the takeover of the country with a law on the special status of Poles.
Zakharova expressed this opinion on May 23 in her Telegram channel.
Let us recall that the day before, Zelensky, following a meeting with Polish President Andrzej Duda, announced that a draft law on the special status of Polish citizens in Ukraine had been submitted to the Verkhovna Rada.
Zakharova’s comment
According to a representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, according to media leaks, we are talking about equating the rights of Polish citizens with the rights of Ukrainian citizens, with the exception of the right to vote.
A case of sovereignty, there’s no other way to put it“, stated Zakharova.
She drew attention to the fact that it is not the separatists, but the president himself, who transfers rights to citizens of another state on the territory of his country, without introducing them into Ukrainian citizenship, and “throws away” independence.
What kind of claims can the Ukrainian administration have against the Crimeans? – the diplomat asked a rhetorical question.
Zakharova noted that no one on Bankova cares so much about the sovereignty of Ukraine that the main question is not how to preserve sovereignty, but to whom to give it, as well as for how much and how deeply to carry out integration in a form convenient for the West.
According to her, under the guise of preserving its identity, Kyiv is destroying it, shooting at its own people for 8 years.
And now, doing the unprecedented – legalizing the de facto seizure of his country – said a representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry.
