Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy questioned divisions inside the European Union on Thursday over more sanctions against Russia, and asked why some nations were being allowed to block the plan.

"How many more weeks will the EU try to agree on a sixth package?" Zelenskyy said in a late night address. "Of course I am grateful to those friends who are advocating new sanctions, but where do the people blocking this sixth package get their power from? Why are they allowed to hold such power?"
