President Nicușor Dan said on Friday, August 15, before Alaska's discussions between the US President Donald Trump, and the Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, that it is pessimistic that a termination of the Ukraine will be decided.
“It is a very important meeting for all Europe. As you know, it was the discussion of Europeans and their allies, Canada, Turkey, it participated very promising that in the discussion of the will of the will, also participated. So the good thing is that Europe is aligned with the US in this approach. We have a cessation of fire, but I am somewhat pessimistic and if it does not happen.
We had 80 years of international treaties and peace and because of this prosperity. We cannot expect pragmatically that Russia that has entered the Ukrainian territory, following this discussion, to say that it is withdrawn, but a cessation of fire would be welcome for everyone.
Security guarantees for the territory that is left would be very good. This is the point we are and if, again, it would be important that in a week, two, we have a discussion in which to be Ukraine “, said Nicuşor Dan for Antena 3 CNN.
The president stressed that Russia is “aggressive” With Europe, through hybrid wars. Moreover, the head of state said that “Without all the support that everyone gave to Ukraine, today Russia would have been neighbor to Romania. “
“Fortunately, we are not neighbors with Russia, but we have a hybrid war that we see and not only sees Romania. We saw it in the German elections, we see it in the Republic of Moldova, the more powerful the parliamentary elections from the end of September. It is clear that Russia is aggressive with Europe, to have some government.
The fact that Ukraine resists, means that we are further from this danger and this is the reason why Romania and other European countries have helped Ukraine.
Fortunately, because many countries have realized that many countries have contributed more than Romania, Ukraine resists, Russia's economy is under great pressure, so there is no imminent danger to Romania at this time. Only, without all the support that everyone gave to Ukraine, today Russia would have been neighbor to Romania “said Nicuşor Dan.
