Loss of land “worst signal” for international law – Plenkovic

Ukraine's loss of territory in negotiations with Russia would be the worst possible signal for international law and will be a green light for anyone with expansionist ambitions.

This was stated by Prime Minister of Croatia Andrej Plenkovic, who spoke at a joint press conference with President Vodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine in Dubrovnik, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

If a certain party is weaker in negotiations, the outcome will be obvious as that party will have to consider concessions, including conceding some territory, Plenkovic argued, adding that this is the worst possible signal for international law.

That would mean a green light for anyone strong enough with expansion ambitions to go for it, Plenkovic stressed.
