In order not to recognize the falsity of the aggression, the hosts of Russia want to throw more of their people and equipment into hostilities. This means that all of us in the free world should strengthen our cooperation in order not only to respond to the next Russian criminal actions. Although it will, of course. There will be an answer. And to prevent new Russian criminal acts as much as possible. The initiative in the war should remain with our forces," he said.
