Last night in Kyiv, tragically, three people were killed by Russian drones, including a father and his five-year-old daughter. Just a day earlier in Zaporizhzhia, a Russian strike took the lives of an entire family—a mother, a father, and their daughter. My condolences to all the families and loved ones.
There must be more pressure on Russia to stop this terror. And that depends on all our partners—the U.S., Europe, and others around the world. After the last meeting in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, it has become absolutely clear to the entire world: Russia is the only one dragging this war out, the only one that brought it here—and the only one who needs it to continue.
Since March 11, a proposal for an unconditional ceasefire has been on the table—and these attacks could have already stopped. But it is Russia that continues all this. Every night, every single day, it carries out the most cynical strikes. Without pressure on Russia, those in Moscow will continue to show contempt for real diplomacy and keep destroying lives.
Today is the second meeting between the Ukrainian and U.S. teams in Saudi Arabia. This time at a more technical level—with our military, diplomats, and representatives from the Ministry of Energy.
I’ve spoken with @rustem_umerov, who briefed me on the meeting and the course of negotiations. Our team is working in a fully constructive manner, and the discussion is quite useful. The work of the delegations continues.
But no matter what we’re discussing with our partners right now, Putin must be pushed to issue a real order to stop the strikes—because the one who brought this war must be the one to take it back.
