‼️ Russia formulating its ‘memo’ in response to demand for ceasefire over week, sanctions needed – Zelenskyy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the Russian side's preparation of the so-called "memorandum" in response to the demand for an unconditional ceasefire a mockery of the entire world. He also announced the preparation of new sanctions packages.

"When the Russians spend a week formulating the so-called ‘memorandum’ in response to the need for a ceasefire, it's a mockery of the whole world. They spent so much time on it! Every day of war means lost lives. People are not counted in Russia, of course. But the world must count. New sanctions against Russia are needed. I thank everyone who advocates for and supports this," Zelenskyy said in an evening video address on Friday.
