According to him, as a result of the night shelling in Kyiv there are:
damaged residential buildings;
civilian casualties.
He added that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin rejects any peace efforts and diplomacy in favor of terror and war crimes.
I urge our partners to swiftly pass the US Senate bill and the EU's 18th sanctions package. Don't just watch as Russia terrorizes the people of Ukraine. Act now to stop funding the Russian war machine.
Massive Russian attack this night.

On June 10, the European Commission presented a new package of sanctions against the Russian Federation, which should hit the enemy's revenues from energy sources, banks, and the military industry.
A couple of weeks later, Slovakia and Hungary opposed the restrictions, unwilling to lose access to cheap Russian oil and gas. On July 9, Bratislava again blocked sanctions against Russia during a meeting of EU ambassadors.
