The Ukrainian president has said he will not take any action against Russian-backed rebels in eastern Ukraine.
But President Volodymyr Gelensky said that we would take action to protect ourselves against the Russian invasion.
Speaking at a security conference in Munich, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zhelensky said, “The Ukrainian people are not afraid, but we want to live.”
Volodymyr Zhelensky recorded his views against Western leaders’ pursuing a policy “that pleases Russia” and called for new security guarantees for Ukraine.
He is making the trip despite warnings from US officials not to attend the conference in Munich for the safety of the Ukrainian president.
There were 1,400 bombings on Saturday in the eastern Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, which are controlled by Russian-backed rebels and have declared themselves republics.
On the third day of the tension, two Ukrainian soldiers were killed.
Earlier, US President Joe Biden had said that Russia would launch an attack on Ukraine. But Russia has categorically denied this. It is noteworthy that Western countries have accused Russia of creating fake tensions and creating a reason for its invasion of Ukraine.
Action attack by Minister last time
The bomber struck shortly after noon in front of a gathering of Ukrainian Minister of Internal Affairs Denis Monastirsk. He was then rushed to a bomb-proof building.
Insurgents in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of eastern Ukraine have ordered the mobilization of all men of fighting age. People living there have been urged to move to Russia.
But most people do not obey this command. They have stated that there is no evidence that Ukraine is planning an attack on their territory.
Russian media reported on Saturday that Ukraine was carrying out attacks in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. Russia has also decided to launch a criminal investigation into an attempt to target the Rostov region of Russia, about a kilometer from the Ukrainian border.
In the midst of such a series of attacks, the Western nations of Germany and France have urged their citizens to leave Ukraine. German carrier Lufthansa has announced that it will suspend flights to Ukraine for a week from next Monday.
Hypersonic Missile Launch Russia
Russia has been conducting military exercises to demonstrate its military prowess since meeting with Western leaders in Munich. Russia says it has tested sophisticated hypersonic missiles as part of a nuclear weapons exercise led by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Russia has been conducting military exercises in Belarus, near the Ukrainian border. After this military exercise, Russian troops were concentrated on the Ukrainian border. The United States estimates that between 169,000 and 190,000 Russian troops are stationed along the Ukrainian border, including rebels in eastern Ukraine.
In this regard, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin noted that “Russian forces have occupied the Ukrainian border little by little.”
Kamala Harris warns Russia
Speaking at a news conference, US Vice President Kamala Harris accused Russia of trying to create a false pretext for Russia to invade Ukraine. Kamala Harris warned that the consequences of a Russian invasion would be “severe and rapid.”
Ukraine had historical ties with Russia because it was a part of the United Soviet Union. Despite its non-membership in NATO and the European Union, it has good relations with its member states.
As for Russia, Ukraine does not want to ally with NATO, an ally in military cooperation. Russia believes that such a merger would pose a security threat to itself.
