"Total disrespect for the US, unfortunately": Russia has already been accused of violating agreements

Russia once again launched "Shaheeds" over the territory of Ukraine. This happened on the day of the negotiations, which proves the violation of the agreements.

This was stated by the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council , Andriy Kovalenko , and the President of Ukraine , Volodymyr Zelensky, in an evening address.

In particular, Kovalenko called the launch of drones disrespectful to the United States.

"Russia has launched "Shaheeds" again. Total disrespect for the US, unfortunately," the head of the Central Intelligence Agency commented.

At the same time, Zelensky noted that how Russia behaves in the coming days will reveal a lot, if not everything.

"If there are air alerts again, if there is military activity in the Black Sea again, if there are Russian manipulations and threats again, then we will have to take new measures - specifically against Moscow. Diplomacy must work. We, on the Ukrainian side, are doing everything for this. I want to thank everyone who helps us. Thank you to America for the fact that our teams are working constructively and effectively. We need a result from Russia. We don't believe them. The world really doesn't believe Russia. And they must prove that they are ready to end the war and are ready not to lie to the world, not to lie to Trump, not to lie to America," the president said.

The head of state pointed out that already now, on the day of the negotiations, it is noticeable how the Russians have begun to manipulate.

"They are trying to twist the agreements and actually deceive both our mediators and the whole world. There are absolutely clear statements published by the White House. Everyone can see what is stated there. And there is something that the Kremlin is lying about again. Allegedly, the silence in the Black Sea depends on sanctions, allegedly the date of the beginning of the silence regarding energy is March 18. Moscow always lies, and it depends on the world, and on everyone who really needs peace, whether Russia will be allowed to lie again," Zelensky stated.

As is known, the White House published the results of technical-level negotiations with the Ukrainian delegation on March 23-25 in Saudi Arabia.
