Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked the leaders of the European Union for their clear support of independence and territorial integrity, and noted that the Russian Federation is not preparing to end the war, so it is necessary to continue to put pressure on Russia – „pressure of strength, pressure of sanctions, pressure of diplomacy.“

“We see that the Russian army is not preparing to end the war. On the contrary, they are making movements that indicate preparations for new offensive operations. In such circumstances, it is important that the unity of the world is not threatened,” Zelenskyy said on X Tuesday.

The President noted that Russia must be held accountable for its refusal to stop the killings.
