The proposed sanctions would be directed at the Russian banking sector, oil companies and companies providing services in oil fields, based on measures already implemented by the Biden administration.

"Ukraine is ready to follow the way to peace and this Ukraine has been striving for peace since the first second of this war" – said Zelenski.
"The task is to force Russia to halt war".
