‼️ Russia hasn’t yet demonstrated political will regarding ceasefire and war end – Yermak
Russia has not yet demonstrated political will regarding the ceasefire and end of the war, said head of the President’s Office of Ukraine Andriy Yermak during an online meeting with representatives of the Ministry of Youth and Sports and the Ukrainian Football Association, during which they coordinated actions to prevent the Russian national team from participating in the World Cup next year.
"Russia has not yet demonstrated political will regarding the ceasefire and end of the war. Therefore, it would be a big mistake to say that we should accommodate Russia and allow it to participate in football championships," said Yermak, quoted by the press service of the President's Office on its website on Tuesday.
