The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine on Sunday will name companies that violate sanctions against the Russian Federation, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said.

"All this is happening on Ukrainian blood, at the cost of our blood, our suffering, and today during the day we will publicly go out with the names of specific companies, about what they do and how they are still trying to make money with Russia at our expense. You will see some countries and companies in this list that will surprise you. But, unfortunately, this is the harsh truth. We are not in a situation to be silent and help certain governments and companies hide their business activity with Russia," Kuleba said at the online briefing on Sunday.

The minister said that among states and international companies there are those "that are trying to sit on two chairs at the same time and, on the one hand, support Ukraine, and on the other hand, continue to do business with Russia or help it circumvent sanctions in one way or another."
