«Аn empire needs at least three states to exist: Russia, which is there, Belarus, which is partially there, and what’s missing is Ukraine. Without it the existence of the Russian empire is impossible. That is why Russia will not stop and will do everything to take over Ukraine by military, political, non-political, and some internal social means.
