Zelenskyy: Removing sanctions against Russia would deal a severe blow to Ukraine

Zelenskyy: If the sanctions against Russia are lifted, it will be a heavy blow to Ukraine

Reporter: If the sanctions against Russia are lifted, does it mean that Ukraine's strategy of making Russia bear the greatest economic loss has failed?

"First of all, this is not just Ukraine's strategy, but the strategy of the entire civilized world - to make Russia pay economically because it uses this money against us, on weapons. Therefore, not supporting Russia economically is the right strategy for everyone."

"As for lifting the sanctions, if it really happens, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow. For us, it is a blow in terms of weapons; for the whole world, it is a reputational blow. As for the specific dialogue between Russia and the United States, we know that Russia is negotiating with U.S. representatives about the possible lifting of sanctions. We are very confident that the United States will not make such concessions."
