Oleksiy Danilov: Ukraine has no intention of making territorial concessions to russia in order to end hostilities

Today, Ukraine is defending its land on its territory, and no territorial concessions to end the war are acceptable. Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Oleksiy Danilov stated this on the air of Radio KyivFM.

"Today, we are defending not only ourselves but also Europe as a whole, the entire civilized world from the barbarism of the russian federation. russia is very treacherous, and human life and international obligations are an empty sound for it", - Mr. Danilov emphasized. "Our task is to defend our territory and remove the invaders from our land".

With this in mind, he added, international military assistance to Ukraine is a joint endeavor and a joint task.

"Recently, the quantity and quality of weapons have become completely different than in the first months of the war. In the first weeks of the war we had three magic words - NLAW, Javelin and Stinger. Today we are talking about other capacities and capabilities", - he added.

Answering questions about the terms of the end of the war, the NSDC Secretary stressed: "The war will not end tomorrow. This is a difficult job that our defenders perform every day. Huge gratitude to them for that!"
