2,884 kilometers. That is the distance from here to the Omsk oil refinery. A historic range. Historic precision. And unlike Russia, which wages war against residential buildings, schools, and churches, Ukraine strikes the “sponsors” of Putin’s war and the tools that help him kill.
Some say that, with modern technology, we are sending Russia back to the Middle Ages. Others recall Napoleon and the days when Moscow was ablaze. But for Ukraine, it is not grand rhetoric that matters – it is the result. Our ultimate goal is not Russia without gasoline, but Ukraine without Russia. Ukraine without war. Ukraine with Europe. And Ukraine and Europe without the threat from Moscow.
From an address on Ukrainian Statehood Day – the Day of the Baptism of Kyivan Rus–Ukraine. (4/5)
