"There is only one reason for any escalation, shelling, hostilities, forced evacuations, destruction of the usual formats of life, including in Russia itself, including the Kursk and Belgorod regions, and that is the fact of Russia's unconditional aggression - its attempt to seize foreign territories and disregard for international law, which clearly defines the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity," Podolyak wrote on Telegram.
He emphasized that "the author of the concept of 'Russia's self-destruction' is also well known: the subject Putin." "Therefore, the conclusions are absolutely obvious... Russia has always believed that the prohibitive norms of law do not apply to it, and therefore it can attack the territories of neighboring countries with impunity and hypocritically demand... inviolability of its territories," Podolyak said.
But war is a war that has its own rules and in which the aggressor always reaps the appropriate rewards..." - Podoliak emphasized.
