The President stressed that at yesterday's negotiations in Istanbul, the Ukrainian side once again voiced a proposal to the Russian side for an immediate and complete ceasefire, in response, Russian drones are hitting Ukrainian residential buildings.
"Russia does not stop terror, blocks diplomacy, and that is why it deserves full-scale sanctions responses and our strikes on its logistics, on its military bases, on its military production. We will do everything to make diplomacy work. But it is Russia that must stop this war, which it itself started," he said.
