In a late-night video address to Ukrainians, Zelenskyy said 'Russian aggression was not intended to be limited to Ukraine alone' and that the 'entire European project is a target for Russia.'
KYIV, Ukraine -- Russia is targeting all of Europe with its invasion of Ukraine, and stopping Moscow's aggression is essential for the security of all democracies, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said as Russian forces prepared for battle in the east of his country.
Russia has pulled its troops from the northern part of the country and refocused on the eastern Donbas region, where Moscow-backed separatists have fought Ukrainian troops for eight years and controlled some territory before the war, now in its 46th day. In an update on Twitter, the ministry also said that the Russian military's efforts to"generate more fighting power" also include trying to recruit from Trans-Dniester, a breakaway region in Moldova that borders Ukraine.
Zelenskyy repeated his call for a complete embargo on Russian oil and gas, which he called the sources of Russia's"self-confidence and impunity." Some European countries depend heavily on imported Russian energy. "We have to fight, but fight for life. You can't fight for dust when there is nothing and no people. That's why it is important to stop this war," the president said.
