But we are not going anywhere! Russia wants fear. Panic. The isolation of Ukraine. It will not succeed. Europe is not going anywhere. We remain in Kyiv. We remain with Ukraine,&rdquo; EU Ambassador to Kyiv Katar&iacute;na Mathernov&aacute; wrote on X.Ukraine, meanwhile, dismissed the Russian threats as &ldquo;rhetoric.&rdquo;&ldquo;We urge our partners not to yield to this Russian blackmail,&rdquo; Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said.
