The goal of Ukraine's long-range sanctions against Russia is to make the continuation of the occupation as unsustainable as possible for the invading forces.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said this in his nightly video address, according to Ukrinform.
"I am also grateful to every partner who is with us in the diplomatic process and is thinking about how to force Russia to finally move toward an agreement. We must end this war with dignity – end it with a real peace," he said.
"Right now, we are delivering results from our long-range sanctions against Russia, as well as our mid-range sanctions, every single day. It is important that our people in Crimea and in other parts of Ukraine’s occupied territory understand that Ukraine’s goal is only to make the continuation of the occupation as unbearable as possible for the occupier. And we are doing this," Zelensky said.
