Western nations would do far better to funnel weapons, ammunition and cash to Kiev to help with defense against a purported Russian invasion, rather than continue to hype up the risks of an all-out war, Ukraine’s Minister of Culture and Information Policy has declared.
Speaking during an appearance on Ukrainian television channel 1+1 on Monday, Alexander Tkachenko weighed in on the steps some countries are taking to support the former Soviet Republic.
“The position of the West sometimes reminds me of a man who is sitting in a car and sees that someone is about to be beaten, he waves his hand and says, ‘well, when you get beaten, we’ll call for medical help.’”
