— Ukraine is ready to work as rapidly and transparently as possible to end the war. But unfortunately, even now, on the day of conversation, we see how The Russians are already manipulating said Zelenski.
— They're already trying to distort the agreement and actually deceive both our mediators and the full world.The White home has published absolutely clear statements. Anyone can see what they're saying. And there's something about The Kremlin is lying again: that expected silence in the Black Sea depends on the issue of sanctions And that the expected date of the start of the silence on energy was March 18. Moscow is always lying, says the president.
Zelenski warns the Russians. “Everybody will see everything”
Zelenski declared that Ukraine will do everything to make certain that the agreements work and that there will be no attacks. “But the Russians should know and know that if they strike, they will receive a decisive answer. And they will be responsible. And if the Russians later tell stories that the impacts did not affect energy or civilian infrastructure, everyone would see everything, he explained.
The Ukrainian Head of State recalled that since 11 March the US has had a full and unconditional ceasefire on the table everywhere, not only in the energy sector and in the Black Sea, but this Russia has refused to do so and is dragging this war.
“When Putin refused to grant unconditional ceasefire, there were no fresh sanctions against Russia. Moscow now demands the abolition of certain sanctions, although he has been saying for 3 years that he has not been afraid of sanctions and that they are even useful, the president said.
According to Zelenski, if this agreement does not work and the Russians neglect to meet the conditions of today's agreements and effort again to put force on America, Europe and Ukraine, then there should be only 1 answer: "strongly fresh sanctions, much more pressure".
— The way Russia behaves in the coming days will uncover much, if not all. If air strikes again, if military activity occurs again in the Black Sea, if Russian manipulations and threats happen again, then fresh measures will should be taken against Moscow. Diplomacy must work said Zelenski.
