During a video conference at the Delphic Forum, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that the state's nuclear status should not be a “solution to injustice ” to other countries, Interfax-Ukraine reports.
“Injustice is what Russia is doing against us, against Ukraine, using its privileges in international organizations, as well as the fear of using nuclear weapons, a fear that Russia is deliberately constantly spreading,” he said.
According to him, there is a serious discussion in the world at the political level about what to do if Russia uses tactical nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction, including chemical ones.
Zelensky reminded that in the 1990s Ukraine gave up its third largest nuclear arsenal.
“In return, our country received written promises of security from the world's strongest states, in particular from Russia,” the president said, adding that one of these countries had attacked Ukraine.
“Other states will also conclude that they need nuclear weapons. We need a reform of the security system so that nuclear status is not a solution to any injustice,” Zelensky said.
