Zelensky: Putin is simply laughing at the West and its silence
Russia is escalating attacks on Ukraine's gas and energy infrastructure ahead of winter, but the international response remains weak.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this in a video address, News.Az reports.
"Russia is launching massive strikes against Ukraine and isn't even trying to hide its true objectives. The vast majority of targets are civilian facilities, ordinary infrastructure. This includes energy facilities, civilian enterprises, warehouses—specifically, warehouses with civilian goods—and our logistics—railway logistics, which ensures the normal functioning of communities and the economy. Dozens of ordinary residential buildings have also been damaged," Zelensky noted.
Unfortunately, according to the president, there is no dignified, strong response from the world to everything that is happening, to the constant increase in the scale and brazenness of the attacks.
"That's precisely why Putin is doing this: he's simply laughing at the West, at its silence and lack of strong response. Russia has rejected all offers to stop the war or even halt the attacks. Russia is openly trying to destroy our civilian infrastructure, and right now, before winter, it's our gas infrastructure, electricity generation, and transmission. There's been zero real reaction from the world. We will fight to ensure the world doesn't remain silent and that Russia feels the response," Zelenskyy emphasized.
