Russia’s political influence on other countries is waning, and an independent and free Ukraine is the largest and politically most dangerous country for Russia.

According to Ukrinform, President Volodymyr Zelensky made this statement in an interview with The Guardian, as reported on his Telegram channel.

According to him, Russia’s political influence on other countries is waning. Azerbaijan is independent. Yesterday’s elections in Armenia were a major success for its independence.

“I also think the Russians lost Moldova. Of course, they don't want to lose Ukraine, because an independent and free Ukraine is the biggest and politically most dangerous country for Russia,” Zelensky emphasized.

According to him, when Ukraine joins the European Union, Russian President Vladimir Putin will face internal problems with various ethnic groups, especially in the Caucasus, and different ethnic groups across Russia will raise questions.
