President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky, speaking in the U.S. Congress, suggested that they impose sanctions against all Russian officials who currently remain in office.

"New packages of sanctions are required weekly. Until the Russian war machine stops. Restrictions are needed for everyone who maintains this unjust regime. We suggest that the United States put on the sanctions lists all political persons of the Russian Federation who remain in official positions and do not break ties with those responsible for the aggression against Ukraine, from State Duma deputies to the last official who lacks morale to break with state terror," the president said.

He also called for the withdrawal of all American companies from the Russian Federation.

"All American companies must leave Russia, leave their market immediately, because it is flooded with our blood. Ladies and gentlemen, members of Congress, please take the lead, if you have companies in your districts who finance the Russian military machine leaving business in Russia, you should put pressure. I'm asking to make sure that the Russians do not receive a single penny that they use to destroy people in Ukraine," the president urged.

In addition, according to Zelensky, all American ports should be closed to Russian products and ships.

"Peace is more important than profit. And we must defend this principle together all over the world," the head of state added.
