Ukraine's Zelenskyy: Calling on EU to sanction Russian oil in next package
In a video address to the Lithuanian parliament on Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on the European Union to sanction all Russian banks and oil imports in the next package, as reported by Reuters.
"If there is still no clarity of banning Russian gas, no one can be sure there is a will to stop Russian war crimes," Zelenskyy added. "In all Ukrainian towns where Russians stayed for a period of time, occupants did the same as in Bucha."
