## Zelenskyy: Russia no longer exports but imports petrol and that's our achievement

Authored by pravda.com.ua

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Russia is importing petrol, calling it the rightful result of the work of the Security Service, the Armed Forces, intelligence and Ukrainian weapons manufacturers.

Quote: "Today, there were also reports on our entirely justified strikes against Russian targets – against their logistics and fuel infrastructure.

Russia chooses war, Russia destroys our people's lives, and must be held accountable – our long-range capabilities will increase.

Russia now imports petrol, and notably from across the map: from Asia – China and others – and from Europe, Belarus in particular.

This is one of the consequences of Putin's war: the gas-station-country isn't selling fuel – it's buying it.

Details: Zelenskyy added that Ukraine is preparing projects with partners on joint weapon production and new sanctions.

We will unify our sanctions with those of our partners, and the pressure on Russia will only grow.". »
