Ukrainian PM: It’s ‘Crystal Clear’ That Russia Is the World’s Primary Threat
Ukrainian Prime Minister Yatsenyuk: Who Knows Where Putin Will Go Next (NBC News)
The world doesn't know how far Russian President Vladimir Putin will go to attain his self-proclaimed goal of restoring the Soviet Union — and the end result could be disastrous, Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said Saturday.
“President Putin has a dream to restore the Soviet Union. And every day, he goes further and further,” Yatsenyuk told NBC News’ David Gregory in an exclusive interview airing on Sunday’s “Meet the Press.”
“And God knows where is the final destination.”
Putin divulged his aim to reestablish the Soviet Union in his state of the union address two years ago and said in another speech that the biggest disaster of the 20th century was the collapse of the Soviet Union, Yatsenyuk recalled during the interview.
