Russia's response to the war is perceived as weak and unwilling to end the conflict.

Zelensky said Putin’s response showed Russia once again chooses war and does not want to end it. He called the answer weak, said many around the world were disappointed, and urged less money and more pressure on Moscow. #Ukraine

Unfortunately, the Russian side once again chooses war – everyone heard the response today. Weak response. He simply does not want to end the war. I think many around the world were disappointed by that response. He does not want to change anything, and he does not want to admit that this war appeals only to him – and to those who are making money off him. They were all smiling very broadly today. That means Russia must have less money, and there must be more pressure on Russia. I thank everyone who is helping us. I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine and wants a real peace.
