Ukraine has a "Plan A," which includes the full restoration of the territorial integrity of Ukraine, says the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Dmytro Kuleba.

"What is 'Plan A'? 'Plan A' is the complete restoration of the territorial integrity of Ukraine. It is the production of weapons in sufficient quantities for Ukraine to defend itself, and in the perspective, of NATO membership to prevent aggression. The third element is the restoration of Ukraine's economy and all that is destroyed, using frozen Russian assets and investments," he stated.

According to the minister, the so-called "Plan B," talked about by journalists and experts, is Russia's move.

"Now, let's talk about 'Plan B.' We all see various experts and journalists discussing what their vision of 'Plan B' is. For them, 'Plan B' is agreeing to at least one of the points I mentioned. For them, 'Plan B' is agreeing to some territorial concessions, refusing to help Ukraine obtain weapons, and not transferring frozen Russian assets to Ukraine. That's what was talked about as 'Plan B,'" he said.

Kuleba emphasized that Ukraine does not need such a "Plan B."

"So, I say there is no 'Plan B.' There is 'Plan A,' and we stick to it," added the minister.

It is worth noting that recently, Kuleba stated that he is confident in Western assistance and there is no "Plan B."
