In 1994, Ukraine received security guarantees that were not fulfilled. And the planet received two eco-bombs in the center of Europe: Crimea and the occupied part of the Ukrainian Donbas.

This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy during his speech at the UN Climate Change Conference COP26 in Glasgow, UA reports.

“The Crimea peninsula with its unique flora and fauna became a naval base. And in part of the Donbas – flooding of mines, soil degradation and lack of drinking water” – the President said.

He stressed that this is a common threat to the whole world. Nowadays, disaster, wherever it happens, affects everyone. This is evidenced by the explosion at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant, which affected not only Ukraine but dozens of countries around the world.

To remind, Ukraine plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 65% until 2030.
