That there should be a reload of the government to put real politicians, and not these technocratic English-speaking ministers we’ve had over the past year.’ I think that would be an enormous mistake, in part because it would fuel the Kremlin attempt to mischaracterize Ukraine and say that Ukraine is a failing state, when in fact Ukraine is an emerging European democracy.”
