President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Russia continues to utilise dozens of critical components for the manufacture of missiles, so every instance of sanctions evasion calls for an immediate response.

Quote: "We continue our communication with partners on sanctions against Russia – their full effect. All of our diplomatic representatives must step up their efforts to ensure that our partners respond more actively to every instance of Russia's circumvention of sanctions."

Details: According to Zelenskyy, all Russian missiles have dozens of critical components produced abroad, and many of them are made by companies from the free world.

The president stated that Oleksandr Lytvynenko, Head of Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence Service, released a report on this subject today that set out clear facts.

"So blocking the ways Russia circumvents sanctions is literally blocking terror. I am grateful to all partners who understand this and to everyone in the world who helps us in this work," Zelenskyy said.
