Quote from Zelenskyy: "We are coordinating with our partners on specific issues. We appreciate that our partners are taking Ukraine's proposals on sanctions into account when preparing their own packages. And we will definitely implement our partners' sanctions in the Ukrainian jurisdiction."

Details: He noted that sanctions against Russia for this war "have already become a global form of interaction that restores the real power of justice". Russia is feeling the effects of the world's sanctions.

"We have synchronised sanctions with Japan – I have signed the relevant decree. The sanctions list includes leaders and companies that supply the Russian military machine with weapons, critical components and equipment," Zelenskyy emphasised.

He said that since June this year, Ukraine has adopted eight sanction packages and synchronised sanctions with the US, Canada, the UK, Japan and all EU sanction packages.

"[We've sanctioned] a total of 281 individuals and 633 legal entities, and these are significant individuals. We are also working to ensure that new sanctions are imposed, in particular, we are counting on the 19th package of EU sanctions," Zelenskyy said.
