Today at noon, around 13:00, the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenski had a live communication with the Albanian Parliament where, among many other messages, he listed his demands to the Albanians.
He said that Russian banks should be separated from the global financial system and meanwhile the ports for Russian ships should be closed and tourists should be restricted.
"I believe that by working together with all Europeans with our good efforts we will be able to stop this war waged by Russia. To be able to protect Europe in the future from a recurrence of a threat like this. The 6th package of sanctions is being discussed in the EU, we must insist that it includes the oil embargo and the real blockade of any scene that Russia uses to deceive the free world. Russian banks must be completely disconnected from the global financial system. As difficult as it may be, trade with Russia must be deliberately curtailed. "I urge you to close the ports for Russian ships, to limit arrivals for Russian tourists," Zelenski said.
Not forgetting to thank Albania for its support, he said the UN should sever co-operation with Russia.
"I am grateful to Albania for its cooperation on its UN platform. Since 2014 when Russia invaded Crimea and started the war in the Donbas, the UN has purchased goods and services from it for at least $ 2.5 billion. That's wrong, it's impossible. "
The confession of the Ukrainian leader shocked the parliament as it told about the current situation in the country and specifically in Mariopol.
"The bombings continue while we are talking. Mariupol is destroyed, there is no building. It is a city of half a million and today there are no dwellings. They do not allow water, food or medicine. It is almost a completely burned city. There are destructions, murders and scenes of terrorism. Total robbery. The elderly say they have never seen cruelty before. Now they are seeing the Russian army shooting children in the face. The Russian army forces and tortures young people, fills their shoes with water and leaves them in the cold. They do not even let them move. In liberated areas we find massacred people. Many of them shot in the back of the head. "There are bodies everywhere, in the woods in the basement."
