President of Ukraine

The President emphasized that Ukraine will continue to work with partners to coordinate this pressure.

At the same time, the head of state initiated a bill on criminal liability for attempts to circumvent sanctions, "and this is largely a continuation of international practice regarding sanctions."

We all understand: the more pressure on the aggressor, the closer peace is. Sanctions are one of the most effective instruments of fair pressure on Russia and all those who are associated with it or work for war. This bill will be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.

Zelenskyy to hold talks with Starmer

According to the Ukrainian leader, the peacekeeping contingent can become an important component in providing comprehensive security guarantees for Ukraine.

Despite this, Volodymyr Zelenskyy made it clear that this alone will not be enough to protect the country from new Russian invasions.

Undoubtedly, one contingent from some countries will not do. I think this is not enough. But the fact that this can be a serious component of future security guarantees is true. This initiative was launched by Emmanuel Macron. The British view it positively, but I will talk in detail with the Prime Minister about this at our meeting, it will take place.
