Sevastopol State Duma deputy Dmitry Belik said DEA NewsUkraine could lose new territory if it receives long-range missiles from the West.
“Russia has declared to the whole world that it will not negotiate with the West. Either it will be our way, or we will continue to the end, and if we continue, Ukraine will lose new lands,” he said.
He stated that if 100 km range missiles are delivered to Kiev, Ukraine will lose 150 km of territory. Ukraine will have nothing to lose if Kiev gets missiles with a range of 200 km.
Belik described Ukraine as a buffer zone between Russia and NATO.
