Russia is Showing Its Middle Finger to the Whole World, Zelensky

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called for increased pressure on Russia. He made this announcement in a post on his Telegram channel.

“Many people have spoken with Russia at various levels. None of these conversations have led to sustainable peace or even a ceasefire. Unfortunately, Putin feels immune, and even after all the terrible blows he has received, he seems to be preparing several more 'responses.' This means that with every new wave of diplomacy, with every new delay in diplomacy, Russia is showing its middle finger to the whole world—everyone who does not want to increase pressure on it,” Zelensky wrote.

On the day commemorating the fallen Ukrainian children, Zelensky reminds world leaders of the facts. “And if the powerful do not stop Putin, it means that they share responsibility with him. And if they want to but cannot stop him, then Putin no longer sees them as powerful,” he added.
