It is time world assigns terrorist status for Russia – Ukraine’s Defence Minister
Oleksii Reznikov, the Minister of Defence of Ukraine, is convinced that by attacking Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure facilities, Russia has de facto recognised itself as a terrorist state, and it’s time the world assigned this state the proper legal status.
