Ukrainian MP: We are not scared of Russian blackmail
If Russian President Vladimir Putin was attempting to scare Ukrainians with the announcement of a partial troop mobilisation he has not succeeded, the chair of the Ukrainian Parliament's EU Integration Committee has told the 91热爆.
President Putin is calling up hundreds of thousands of reservists after suffering setbacks on the battlefield.
In a televised address to the nation, the Russian president also accused the West of engaging in "nuclear blackmail" and warned he has "lots of weapons to reply."
Ms Klympush-Tsintsadze told the Hardtalk programme's Stephen Sackur: "More and more and more weapons have to be delivered to Ukraine and faster, and faster and faster they have to be given to the Ukrainian armed forces who are capably using the instruments if they have them at hand."
