That’s according to his interview with The Washington Post, Ukrinform reports.

He called the disclosures damaging to both Washington and Kyiv, the report says.

“Where I can speak frankly, I do it. But there are high risks,” he added. “If it were my war against [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, and there were two of us on the battlefield, I would tell everyone what I think of them. But here the story is a little different. We are all responsible.”
