LAST UPDATE: 12.52
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday called for new international sanctions against Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, citing a boycott of Russian oil and other Russian exports and a halt to exports to Russia.
Western sanctions imposed by Russia’s military strike have already isolated Russia to the point where it has never experienced such a large economy.
Zelensky said the economic pressure should increase, essentially calling for an international trade embargo on Russia.
“If the invasion continues and Russia has not abandoned its plans against Ukraine, then a new package of sanctions is needed for the sake of peace,” he said in a videotaped speech, referring in particular to the boycott of Russian oil and petroleum products.
“Boycott imports to Russia. If they do not follow civilized rules, then they should not receive goods and services from culture,” he said.
