Consequences of the August 28 strike on Kyiv

Sybiha said that Russia attacked diplomats during the nighttime attack on Kyiv on August 28. According to the minister, this constitutes a direct violation of the Vienna Convention.

"The EU mission to Ukraine was damaged. This requires not only the EU’s, but worldwide condemnation. We express solidarity with our EU colleagues and are ready to provide assistance," the Foreign Minister said.

At the same time, Andriy Sybiha emphasized that Ukraine insists "on strong international reactions to Russia’s brutal strike on Kyiv and other cities".

"Whatever Putin said in Alaska, his real actions reject diplomacy, dialogue, and peace efforts," the Ukrainian minister wrote.
