Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has called for the immediate cancellation of all timelines granted to Russian leader Vladimir Putin following a brutal overnight attack on Kyiv that destroyed residential buildings and damaged schools and hospitals.
According to Ukrinform, Sybiha made the statement on the social media platform X.
“It is probably time to reduce to zero all of the timeframes that had been given to Putin to demonstrate a constructive approach. President Trump has been very generous and very patient with Putin, trying to find a solution,” Sybiha wrote.
He stressed that Putin’s actions are deliberate and destructive.
“Putin does it on purpose. He does not care about any attempts to put an end to the killing. He only seeks to destroy and kill. Because the entire existence of this war criminal is based on this senseless war, which he cannot win but refuses to end. He must face justice,” Sybiha said.

“It’s time to make him feel the pain and consequences of his choices. It’s time to put maximum pressure on Moscow. It is time to synchronize all sanctions steps. It’s time to achieve peace through strength,” Sybiha wrote.
