Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Evgeni Perebiynis told reporters on Tuesday that Ukraine will not be sending any representatives to Moscow in May to celebrate victory, noting that "under conditions of Russian aggression against Ukraine, there can be no participation of Ukrainian representatives in events in Moscow."
The Ministry spokesman noted that "in view of Russian aggression against Ukraine," the participation of representatives of other countries "will be considered by Ukraine as a demonstration of solidarity with the aggressor." Ultimately, Perebiynis notes, this solidarity with the aggressor may affect our bilateral relations with the relevant countries."
Absurdly, Perebiynis noted that Russia is a "country that, despite its anti-Nazi rhetoric, encourages the Nazi movement at home and is a center of pilgrimage for Neo-Nazis from all over the world. We believe that the celebration of Victory Day in such a country can hardly be called anything other than blasphemy."
