Putin’s advisor Kobyakov justified the war with the “existence of the USSR.” Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry rejected “senseless legal fantasies”

An advisor to the Kremlin dictator, Anton Kobyakov, said that the Soviet Union supposedly still legally “exists somewhere,” so the Russian invasion of Ukraine is an “internal conflict.” The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry responded that these are “senseless legal fantasies.”

As Censor.NET reports , this was stated by the spokesman for the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, Heorhiy Tykhyi.

Kobyakov believes that the USSR still exists from a legal point of view, and its collapse in 1991 allegedly “did not comply with the established procedure.” This is allegedly acknowledged even by Western experts in constitutional law.

He also called the signing of the Belavezha Accords – agreements between Ukraine, the Russian Federation, and Belarus, which officially consolidated the collapse of the USSR, “absolutely strange.”

According to the advisor to the Russian dictator, the Supreme Soviets of the former Soviet republics of the RSFSR, the Ukrainian SSR, and the Belarusian SSR ratified these agreements, but this, they say, is “not within their competence at all.”

Reaction of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine

In turn, Tykhyi stressed that the Soviet Union had collapsed – “finally and irrevocably.” He called on the Russian side to forget about “Soviet nostalgic delusion.”

“Instead of offering absurd legal fantasies, outdated minds stuck in the Soviet past should be asked what brand of toilet paper their families used during the USSR. They will not be able to answer because it simply did not exist,” the spokesman for the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry added.

  1. “Instead of offering absurd legal fantasies, outdated minds stuck in the Soviet past should be asked what brand of toilet paper their families used during the USSR. They will not be able to answer because it simply did not exist,”

    Maybe they ask that question to russians now. They dont know what a toilet is, so I doubt they know what toilet paper is.

    • It comes from the same theory Putler and Lavrov project now; that they can’t sign anything with Ukraine now, because there is no “legitimate” president. Of course, unlike Moskovia. And the legitimacy only comes when the Kremlinals decide who the president is. Otherwise they’re not legit.
      ruSSki mir……….where’s my horilka?……..

  2. Sickening, ruSSia still receives Western goods and money while Ukrainian Patriots keep suffering in their trenches…
