Ukraine has actually lost the support of Western countries, because it creates problems for them, former Minister of Defense of Ukraine, General Alexander Kuzmuk, said on the TV channel "112".

"It's not easy to give a frank assessment. It's not positive. We have become an irritant for Europe and the United States. We make things difficult for them. We feel it," Mr. Kuzmuk said, commenting on the reaction of Western countries to the situation in Ukraine and the incident in the Kerch Strait.
He noted that the West calls on Ukraine to solve its problems on its own. "This is not just a suggestion. This is a demonstration, solve the problem, we are tired. And the worst thing is that we have no political support," the general concluded.
