The appearance of a Russian boat flying the flag of the Wagner Group near Estonia’s borders symbolizes the threat of barbarism and lawlessness posed by Russia and underscores the importance of strengthening Ukraine as a shield for the EU and NATO.

Foreign Minister of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha stated this on X, Ukrinform reports.

“This flag stands for barbarism, war crimes, and chaos. Its appearance on the EU and NATO borders sums it up perfectly: there is no civilization beyond that point. This is why it is critical to strengthen Ukraine, which is holding the line against Russian lawlessness,” the head of Ukrainian diplomacy emphasized.
