What does Zelenskyy say

According to the President, the two packages of sanctions against persons connected with the Kremlin's aggression against Ukraine are designed to synchronize similar actions of partners.

These are also sanctions against terrorist state entities related to critical infrastructure. Every last name, every company name is a concrete blame for the fact that Russian terror continues. And we are working so that the sanctions of the partners are extended to those against whom relevant decisions of Ukraine have already been adopted, Zelenskyy noted .

He noted that Ukrainian special services, primarily the Security Service of Ukraine, the Cabinet of Ministers and the National Security and Defense Council, will continue the relevant work on implementing sanctions.
