Former Foreign Minister of Ukraine Pavel Klimkin said that today Russian President Vladimir Putin only afraid of the President of the United States of America Joe Biden.

He stated this on the air of the program “Freedom of speech on ICTV”.

According to him, now there are no “big movements” on the border with Ukraine.

“There are movements, but not those that will lead to a massive invasion tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. A blitzkrieg against Ukraine is impossible. This is understandable even in the Kremlin …” the ex-minister stressed.

According to Klimkin, this is Putin’s dream.

“Therefore, of course, there is no threat tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. This must be said honestly and there is no need to panic. But we must be ready to raise rates,” he said.

The ex-minister believes that whether the military budget is sufficient, whether Ukraine has full fulfillment of the state defense order, whether territorial defense is created in the necessary way – these are key issues for Ukraine.

He noted that now Ukraine has two fundamental ways to ensure its security.

One is the desire of Ukrainians to defend themselves, the fighting spirit and the desire of the state to build the minimum necessary symmetric potential, in particular, a mosquito fleet and the corresponding missile potential.

“And the second is our partners. We understand perfectly well that today Putin is only afraid of Biden,” he stressed.

It was previously reported that Joe Biden is disappointed due to the virtual absence of the leaders of the Russian Federation and China at the G20 meeting in Rome.
