Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reacted to the latest massed shelling, emphasizing that strong sanctions against Russia are a powerful tool to stop the terrorist war and bring about peace. In a statement on September 17, Zelenskyy pointed out that the passage of Lindsey Graham's sanctions bill by the US Congress, which occurred on the night of another Russian attack with ballistics, missiles, and drones, symbolized the effectiveness of such measures.
The Ukrainian leader detailed that Russian forces shelled civilian infrastructure, including energy facilities in Sumy and Odesa regions, as well as residential buildings in Kyiv and Odesa, resulting in fires across multiple communities. Zelenskyy reiterated the importance of robust sanctions, urging them to be strong enough to support joint diplomatic efforts with America, Europe, and other allies in achieving peace.
He also expressed gratitude to House members, senators, and US Congress leaders for their support of the sanctions bill. Recently, Russian occupiers attacked Kyiv once more, injuring 16 people, including two children aged 10 and 12.
