Zelenskyy: We need pressure on aggressor that can force them to stop terror and war
Russian aggression cannot be stopped by words alone but only by decisive action, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said, commenting on the recent attacks of the occupiers on peaceful cities of Ukraine.
"After everything said in Kazan, Russian murderers have resumed their usual business. This proves once again that aggression cannot be stopped by words alone but only by decisive action in defense of the state and the people against whom this war is waged," Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram on Saturday.
He said that over the past evening and night, Russian forces attacked the cities of Kyiv and Dnipro; Sumy, Khmelnytsky, and other regions of Ukraine.
"In Dnipro, one of Ukraine's most important hospitals, the Mechnikov Hospital, was damaged, along with ordinary residential buildings. Tragically, three people were killed, including a child. In Kyiv, this Russian strike took the life of a girl who was only 14 years old. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Many were wounded in these strikes, and all received the necessary assistance," the president said.
"This war has continued for three years now, and there is only one culprit – Moscow. That is why we must exert pressure on the aggressor that can truly force them to end their terror and war. Reliable peace and security are achieved only through strength and determination," Zelenskyy said.
