“Russia continues its terrorist war against life, and it is important that each such vile attack on civilians is met with concrete consequences for Russia – sanctions and real pressure. We count on America, Europe and the G7 countries not to ignore Moscow's will to destroy everything. New pressure measures are needed: aimed at the Russian oil and gas industry and the financial sector, secondary sanctions against those who finance this war,” Zelensky said.
