Russia must end this war, and it is Russia that must take a step towards a real, lasting ceasefire. Until this happens, sanctions against Moscow are needed and must continue to work and be strengthened.

The massive attack occurred immediately after Russia unilaterally ended the partial ceasefire that had been in place for several days.
