Accepting Russian demands is no end of tension, Caputova says

The tension between Ukraine and Russia would not end even if Kiev accepted the demands of Moscow, Slovak President Zuzana Caputova said today at a conference on foreign and European politics organised by the Slovak Foreign Ministry. "It is short-sighted to think that the crisis would end even if Ukraine accepted the inadequate Russian demands. The demands also concern us and our right to have the freedom to choose where we want to belong as a country," Caputova said.
