The President of Ukraine recalled that the world promised to react more harshly to the use of chemical weapons by Russia.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky commented on the information about the use of chemical weapons by the invaders in Mariupol. At the same time, he noted that the use of chemical weapons indicates a new stage of terror against Ukraine and the need to respond to Russian aggression even more harshly and faster. This is discussed in the video message of the head of state on Monday, April 11.
“Today, the invaders made a new statement indicating that they are preparing a new stage of terror against Ukraine and our defenders. One of the mouthpieces of the invaders said that they could use chemical weapons against the defenders of Mariupol. We are considering this as seriously as possible,” Zelensky said. .
The President reminded world leaders that the possible use of chemical weapons by the Russian military had already been discussed.
“And already by that time it meant that it was necessary to respond to Russian aggression much tougher and faster,” he said.
The President noted that the European Union began to discuss the sixth sanctions package against Russia.
“It’s time to make this package such that even the word about weapons of mass destruction is no longer heard from the Russian side. An oil embargo against Russia is a must. Any new sanctions package against Russia that does not affect oil will be received in Moscow with a smile,” he said. .
Earlier it was reported that in Mariupol the invaders used against the Ukrainian military and civilians poisonous substance. He was dropped from a drone.
