Today, raising the issue of severing diplomatic relations with Russia is not a priority, as many countries are participating in the "Normandy format" negotiations.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from the head of the Ukrainian delegation to the trilateral contact group on Donbas, former President Leonid Kravchuk.

"Imagine that Russia refuses to participate in the Normandy and Minsk formats tomorrow and says, we don't want to, we are leaving these formats.'

He noted that in order to end the war in the Donbas, it is necessary to use all opportunities and ways and take steps to return Russian-occupied Crimea to Ukraine:

"That is, to do what is necessary is to restore the sovereignty and inviolability of the territory of Ukraine."
