Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had a telephone conversation with his Polish counterpart Andrzej Duda and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

"Held talks with Johnson. Reported on the course of Ukraine's defense and insidious attacks on Kyiv by the aggressor. Today Ukraine needs the support of partners more than ever. We demand effective counteraction to the Russian Federation. Sanctions must be further strengthened.

"We defend our freedom, our land. We need effective international assistance. Discussed this with Andrzej Duda. Appealed to the Bucharest Nine for defense aid, sanctions, pressure on the aggressor. Together we have to put Russia at the negotiating table. We need an anti-war coalition," he tweeted.
