The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry was outraged by the Financial Times article, as a result of which Kyiv demanded an editorial investigation, as they do not agree with the interpretation that arms and people are traded in Ukraine. This was stated by the representative of the ministry Oleg Nikolenko, RIA Novosti reported.
Moldovan Prime Minister Natalia Gavrilitsa, in a recent interview with the Financial Times, said that Chisinau is “faced with an increase” in human trafficking and arms smuggling from Ukraine, while emphasizing the need for European security for Chisinau.
“This Financial Times material is yet another misinformation. Its goal is to discredit international military assistance to Ukraine… We demand that the Financial Times immediately conduct an editorial investigation into the circumstances of the appearance of materials that have all the signs of disinformation in the interests of Russia,” Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko complained on his social networks.
A dissatisfied Ukrainian diplomat said that the Financial Times journalists who published an article entitled “Moldovan Prime Minister calls on the EU to increase assistance to combat military smuggling in Ukraine” allegedly did not provide examples or evidence that could confirm what was written.
