Russian President Vladimir Putin’s declaration of a partial mobilization only throws “more men into the flames” of the conflict, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said Wednesday.
In a tweet from New York, where he is attending the United Nations General Assembly, Kuleba said, “Putin has shown utter disrespect to China, India, Mexico, Turkey, other Asian, African, Middle Eastern, Latin American nations which have called for diplomacy and an end to Russia’s war on Ukraine. He wants to throw more men into the flames of the war he has no chance of winning.”
