During a meeting with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Barham Salih, President Volodymyr Zelensky discussed the impact of Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy system and the need for assistance for Ukrainians.

Zelensky stated this on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

"We discussed the consequences of Russia's ongoing attacks on Ukraine's energy system and the assistance our people need. There must be more pressure to stop these attacks and more support for our people – especially those who are currently in Ukraine or planning to return," Zelensky stated.

He expressed gratitude to Salih for his first visit to Ukraine in his role as High Commissioner and for all the support the UNHCR provides to Ukrainians living under Russian attacks.
