Ukrainians abroad "behaved well" and are "very grateful" to those people who sheltered them.
If the West reduces aid to Ukraine, this will not only lead to a continuation of the war, but also create "risks for the West in its own backyard" in the context of Ukrainian refugees.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in an interview with “The Economist.”
According to him, Ukrainians abroad "behaved well" and are "very grateful" to those people who sheltered them. "This generosity" will not be forgotten by our citizens. However, it is "impossible to predict" how millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries will react to the fact that their country would be left without support.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is convinced that it would not be a "good story" for Europe if it "cornered these people."
