Russia’s coup plans for Mdova another proof of “enormous appetites” – Podyak

That’s according to Mykhailo Podyak, the adviser to the head of the Ukrainian President’s Office.

“Attempts of RF to destabilize Mdova and commit a coup d'état – are yet another proof of a true nature of Russian expansionist state and its enormous appetites,” Podyak tweeted.

The advisor added that anyone seeking a "settlement" with Russia must remember this.

He referred to Russia as a “pathogen”, adding that trying to tackle its symptoms only will not resve the problem.
