Wladimir Klitschko has issued a statement following the Russian Federation’s decision to launch a full-scale invasion on Ukraine.
The former world heavyweight boxing champion and younger brother of Kyiv mayor, Vitali Klitschko, posted a series of tweets in English condemning the invasion and emphasizing that Ukraine will not give up in the face of destruction.
“Putin makes it clear that he wants to destroy the Ukrainian state and the sovereignty of its people,” Klitschko wrote on Twitter. “Words are followed by missiles and tanks. Destruction and death come upon us. That’s it, blood will mix with tears.
