Russian president Vladimir Putin is a terrorist who talks with missiles, this is the verdict of Dmytro Kuleba, the Ukrainian Foreign Minister. Kuleba posted an October 10 tweet voicing his concerns about continued Russian aggression on Ukraine in their eight-month-old armed conflict. "Multiple Russian missile strikes across Ukraine. Putin’s only tactic is terror on peaceful Ukrainian cities, but he will not break Ukraine down. “This is also his response to all appeasers who want to talk with him about peace: Putin is a terrorist who talks with missiles," Kuleba's tweet read. He also announced that he was cutting short his tour of Africa after the Russian bombardments. Kuleba had visited three African countries at the time he announced the decision to return home to join the fight against the Russians. "I am in constant contact with partners since early morning today to coordinate a resolute response to Russians attacks. I am also interrupting my Africa tour and heading back to Ukraine immediately," his tweet of October 10, 2022 read. Kuleba had visited Senegal, Ivory Coast and Ghana before interrupting his tour, meant to ramp up support for Ukraine and counter Russian diplomatic inroads ion the continent.
