Ukraine Gate- Kyiv – April 7, 2022- In his speech to the Cypriot parliament today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on the politicians of the Republic of Cyprus to block the Russians from using all their ships that are in the waters of the island state.
Zelensky stressed that the Republic of Cyprus has extremely powerful tools to influence Russian society, which can be directed towards achieving peace.
“You have to completely close all ports in the democratic world to Russian ships. This should be a joint decision at the level of the European Union, but at least at the level of your country it is also possible to block the Russians from using all their yachts and other ships in your waters. You can stop the existing privileges for Russian citizens, starting with the so-called “golden passports” for all Russians without exception and ending with dual citizenship for them,” said Zelensky.
