If we did not have half-sanctions and half-solutions, we would have stopped Putin already. Of course, we would have stopped him. The world is much stronger, the world is much bigger, much more powerful, more principled, economically stronger. But half-sanctions. Everything is 'half,'" Zelenskyy stated.
