Russian president Vladimir Putin “has no interest in peace” in Ukraine, said the EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas on Saturday after Russian strikes overnight left dozens dead and wounded in eastern Ukraine, France Presse news agency reports. “We must step up our military support – otherwise, even more Ukrainian civilians will pay the highest price,” she added. In Kyiv, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky said his country is “fully committed” to constructive dialogue with US representatives in Saudi Arabia next week and hopes to agree on the necessary decisions and steps. “Ukraine has been seeking peace from the very first second of this war. Realistic proposals are on the table. The key is to move quickly and effectively,” Zelensky said on social media.
