Volodymyr Zelenskyy
President of Ukraine
According to the head of state, this tragedy reminds the world that increased pressure on Russia, as well as powerful sanctions, are extremely important right now.
Despite the fact that official Moscow denies their effectiveness, they are working and must be stronger — hitting everything that allows such strikes to continue.
I thank everyone who has supported our people. We appreciate that President Trump, European leaders, and our other partners clearly see what is happening and condemn Russia.
