Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has voiced opposition to lifting sanctions against Russia, warning that easing the restrictions would strengthen Russian President Vladimir Putin‘s standing.

Globalinfo.az reports that Zelenskyy made the remarks during an interview with CNN.

“My attitude toward Putin is very clear. I think if we lift sanctions, we will make him stronger. We don’t have a personal conflict with President Trump, but of course, I am against any kind of lifting of sanctions,” the Ukrainian leader said.

Zelenskyy added that should concessions be made to Putin, he would demand even more.

“I know that if you give something to Putin, he will want everything,” the Ukrainian president emphasized.
