The minister anticipates an “inevitable exodus” due to the “hard winter” that he predicts after the Russian attacks
MADRID, 3 Nov. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation, José Manuel Albares, has warned that the situation in Ukraine will worsen even more due to the latest Russian attacks and does not foresee a de-escalation in the offensive, although he rules out that it will end in a nuclear conflict.
“There is not the slightest indication that this could end in a nuclear conflict,” Albares assured this Thursday in an interview on Cadena Ser, collected by Europa Press.
That yes, the head of Foreign Affairs has indicated that as winter arrives and electricity cuts are even more frequent, Ukrainian citizens will suffer a “hard winter” since he does not contemplate signs that Russia has “an idea of ??de-escalation” but just the opposite.
In this sense, Albares has argued that this upsurge will also affect the morale of the Ukrainian civilian population. “They are very aware that they are facing a completely unjust war and living conditions are getting more complicated.” We are going to see harsh images “, he lamented.
Likewise, the minister has predicted that during the winter there will be an “inevitable exodus of Ukrainians” since they will see their access to electricity and heating cut off.
Ukraine has asked countries to bring glass as it is a very expensive and very necessary material in the Eastern country, explained the minister, without which it is not possible to maintain a minimum temperature. “Without crystals it is impossible to take shelter.” “Crystals will be needed throughout the war,” he warned.
