Has Ukraine been too defensive so far?
This is the view of the former governor of Luhansk.
Russia should be bombed for defense.
MOSCOW – In an interview with the Ukrainian news
site Obozrevatel
, former governor of the Luhansk region George Tuka announced that Kiev will not fight to the last Ukrainian, but "to the last Russian."
Ukraine should not limit itself to hitting enemy targets on its territory, but also attack Russian territory, news
site Newsweek
reports .
"I would really appreciate it if our American partners would stop teasing us about not shelling Russian territory," Tuka told
Obozrevatel
.
“In my opinion, pre-emptive strikes on military installations on the territory of both Russia and Belarus are a matter of our country's security, and not just political scaremongering.
Both Russia and Belarus have long deserved something in return.”

Asked about the diplomatic risks of shelling Russian targets with weapons provided by NATO countries, Tuka said the difference between weapons provided by Western powers and Ukrainian weapons was "just a political gimmick." .
Tuka told

For a "breakthrough", Tuka demanded the "provision of vehicle equipment, armored vehicles, means of communication and modern night vision devices" as well as "long-range missiles" in order to "open up new possibilities" for the Ukrainian troops.
