Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "Yesterday's barbaric attack on Kremenchuk's energy infrastructure is part of Russia's campaign to bomb Ukrainian civilian energy infrastructure. 

Moscow intends to attack Ukraine's energy grid while the world's attention is on the Middle East. This is especially cynical given Putin's ongoing attempts to imitate constructiveness toward US peace efforts. In reality, he shows complete disregard for them by ramping up terror against Ukraine. 

Instead of Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy, our partners' strategy should be to hit Russian energy hard with devastating sanctions. 

Oil price cap of $30, new restrictions on "shadow fleet" and its captains, and other energy sanctions. Hit Putin where it hurts—this will advance, not impede, the peace process."
