Zinchenko’s comments come under the light of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine.
The two neighbouring countries have been involved in a war for over a year now.
Countless Ukrainians have lost their lives as a result of Russian attacks.
“I don’t agree. I am one of the Ukrainians who just don’t like to see them in any of the highest levels,” Zinchenko, who is currently the captain of the Ukraine national team, told Piers Morgan.
“For sure. 100%. It shouldn’t be allowed. Why? Because how many bombs and rockets are you sending from Belarus? How many? Listen, I am not political. I didn’t understand anything about it. And I would never understand.
“This is not political. This is war. This is not politics. This is war. Guys, you don’t do anything, I am saying on our side, on the justice side.”
