Zelensky: Russia Cannot Survive If Sanctions Fully Enforced

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia would not survive if sanctions are fully enforced and no one undermines them, citing the lifting of sanctions on some oligarchs as an example. He added that Russian President Vladimir Putin does not understand this format of dialogue, prefers pressure and tough measures, and that sometimes Ukraine needs to speak to him in his own language.

Zelensky's framing shifts the debate from whether sanctions exist to whether they are actually enforced, and his oligarch example points to the loopholes that determine real economic pressure. The remark implicitly targets Ukraine's partners as much as Moscow, since enforcement and consistency are decisions made outside Kyiv. Whether sanctions discipline holds as diplomatic fatigue sets in is the open question.
