Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed on Monday that Russia "wants to destroy humanity."
"We never wanted this war, but this war was brought to us," Zelensky said in a video address. "If somebody loses their mind, then we need to lose the fear and forget about commas and business, we need to fight against inhumane evil that wants to destroy humanity itself," he added.
Zelensky also called for an embargo on Russian oil imports. "If the situation gets worse then new sanctions need to be introduced to bring peace," he stressed. He also rejected accusations of neo-nazism among Ukrainians. "We will never have a swastika in our land," Zelensky insisted.
