The war with Russia will continue until we liberate Crimea - Podolyak

Mykhailo Podolyak, adviser to the head of the President's Office, emphasized that the war will continue until Ukraine frees all its territories, including Crimea and Donbas.

He told about this in an interview with Radio Svoboda.

"There will be a war not for Crimea! There will be a war for the right to exist in a democratic world, within the framework of international law. This is what the war is about. This is not a war for territory, territory is only one of the elements. This is a war for the right that no one can come to your home and say: "Look, I have a little more weapons, I have a little more cruise missiles, so give me what I want."

He emphasized that "today there is a war going on for the right to exist in the civilized world. And in this civilized world, there is no place for Russia in this form. And therefore, of course, the war will continue until the entire territory of Ukraine is liberated."
