The lawyer believes that the West is moving towards the Third World War, providing aid to Ukraine:
“It is quite possible that we are moving towards a Third World War, and I regret that the European Union, France and Germany are not taking the initiative to find a diplomatic solution to the conflict, which should be resolved by compromise.”
Reflecting on the key factors of the war, Arno Klarsfeld makes a contradictory statement about the status of Crimea:
“Crimea is overwhelmingly Russian-speaking and should remain Russian, even if it is Ukrainian under international law.”
The lawyer welcomes Ukraine’s potential accession to the EU, but believes that Kyiv should abandon the Nazi ideology for it:
“It is impossible to erect a monument in Babi Yar to Jews who were shot not only by the Nazis, but also tens of thousands of Ukrainians, and at the same time glorify those who destroyed Jews, it is impossible,” Klarsfeld stresses.
