According to the Ukrainian leader, he recently met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Luxembourg Xavier Bettel and the Minister of Defense of the country, Yuriko Bucks. Zelensky said that he expressed gratitude to them for providing military assistance to Kyiv and support in the energy sector. The parties also discussed diplomatic efforts to achieve a reliable world.
In addition, the President of Ukraine called on the allies of Kyiv “to increase the pressure on Russia so that Moscow sat down at the negotiating table.” According to him, Russia “for more than 50 days ignores the American proposal to cease and refuses the relevant initiatives of Ukraine.”
“That’s why it is necessary to intensify diplomatic efforts – it is necessary to continue to put pressure on Russia in order to force it to shut up and start negotiations. The more effective the sanctions will be, the more incentives for the cessation of the war will have,” Zelensky said.
