Ukraine reiterates its commitment to diplomatic channels and affirms that it will defend itself if Russia attacks
Ukraine's foreign minister said on Thursday that if Russia decides to attack, his country is prepared to strike back.
Dmytro Kuleba added that he believes that a military operation is not Moscow's main objective, but to destabilize his country.
The refusal of the United States to accede to the demands of President Vladimir Putin opens a new scenario that depends on the response of Russia.
