The “do not provoke Russia” policy has finally disappeared, so now is the time to do the right thing.”
- Oleksiy Danilov, Secretary of the National Security Council: “If they (the Russians – ed.) blow up the Kakhov dam, the issue of supplies to Crimea will be closed once and for all, it will be impossible to restore it in the next 5-7 years. Today we have information about what the enemy is doing there. We are not talking about electricity now, we are talking about terrible things, because it will be a catastrophe of a universal scale if they make such a decision.”
- Yevhenii Tsimbalyuk, permanent representative of Ukraine to international organizations in Vienna: “Given the lack of manpower, Moscow is making every effort to fully involve its other accomplice, Minsk, in the war. And if Belarus does not have low intentions, why not agree with the initiative of deploying a border mission of international observers, which was recently proposed by the President of Ukraine? Game time is over.”

- Yair Lapid, Prime Minister of Israel: “Relations between Russia and Iran are a serious problem not only for Israel, but also for Ukraine, Europe and the whole world.

The fact that Russia uses Iranian drones in the war with Ukraine is absolutely unacceptable.”
