Zelenskyy: We’re identifying precisely those pressure points of Russia that will most effectively push Moscow toward diplomacy

Ukraine is preparing for talks with the United States on new sanctions aimed at pressuring Russia to engage in diplomacy and end hostilities, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in an evening address on Tuesday.
“We are also preparing for talks with the United States on new sanctions steps – we are identifying precisely those pressure points of Russia that will most effectively push Moscow toward diplomacy,” Zelenskyy said.
The President also stressed that Ukraine insists on the need for clear actions to end the war, and the first step towards this should be an unconditional and complete ceasefire.
“Russia has to make that move. Right now, they’re worried about whether they can hold their military parade – and rightly so. But what they really should be worried about is that this war is still ongoing. They must end the war,” he added.
