Kyiv calls for more pressure on Russia
Foreign Minister Andrij Sybiha spoke of the most massive Russian air raid for many weeks and a difficult Sunday for Ukraine with a sleepless night. Russia used hundreds of drones, cruise missiles and ballistic rockets against cities and municipalities. “While the whole world demands an end to killing, Putin arranges even more blows, attacks and murders on children,” wrote Sybiha on the platform X. It takes an unconditional and durable ceasefire for peace negotiations. The global community must increase the pressure on Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin.
The current pressure was insufficient, the head of the Presidential Chancellery, Andrij Jermak, said at Telegram. “Nothing will change without pressure, and Russia and its allies will only build forces for such murders in western countries. Moscow will fight as long as it has the opportunity to produce weapons.”
