Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Russian leader Vladimir Putin gave a weak response to his open letter and that Russia is once again choosing war over peace.
The head of state said this in his nightly video address, Ukrinform reports.
"Unfortunately, the Russian side is once again choosing war -- everyone heard today's response. It was a weak response. He [Putin] simply does not want to end the war. I think this response disappointed many people around the world. He does not want to change anything and does not want to admit that this war is liked only by him and by those who are making money from him – they were all smiling broadly today. This means there must be less money in Russia and more pressure on Russia," Zelensky said.
Zelensky also announced upcoming meetings with European and U.S. partners.
