Russia’s terror must be responded with force at all levels: on the battlefield, with sanctions, and legally. President of Ukraine said this in his video address to the nation.
“Now Russia is sending thousands of its mobilized men to the front. They have no significant military training, but their command does not need it at all. They expect that the mobilized Russians will be able to survive in the war for at least a few weeks, then they will die, and then new ones will be sent to the front. But during this time, such use by Russian generals of their people as "cannon fodder" makes it possible to create additional pressure on our defenders.
It"s a tangible pressure. And I am grateful to all our warriors who endure it. I am also grateful to the partners who understand that in such conditions we need an increase in defense assistance. I thank everyone who fights, works and helps to protect Ukraine!”, - said Volodymyr Zelensky.
