Kirilo Budanov, the head of the presidential office, who leads the negotiations with Russia regarding military issues, stated on Tuesday, February 24, that even in war conditions, there must be clear limits that no belligerent party should violate, such as targeting political centers and locations where national leaders are located, reports the Ukrainian press.
In a comment for RBC-Ukraine, Budanov emphasized that, although war brings destruction and loss, certain principles should not be abandoned.
“It is a terrible event that takes thousands of lives, destroys cities and breaks destinies. But even here there must be certain limits that cannot be exceeded under any circumstances,” he said.
Budanov condemned the deliberate bombing of hospitals and maternity wards, attacks on historical and cultural sites, as well as the killing of civilians, describing these actions as unacceptable.
“Despite the cruelty of war, I cannot understand who and under what circumstances can raise a weapon against a child or an elderly person who is physically unable to defend themselves,” he said, calling such acts “a degradation of human dignity.”
He also spoke out against strikes on political decision-making centers and locations associated with the state leadership.
