Quote: "The president of the United States is very clear about increasing pressure on Russia to end this terrible war Russia has brought against Ukraine and all of Europe and this is also the shared position of all G7 leaders. We are grateful for this unity. We have the tools and they are strong enough to put Russia on a path where diplomacy becomes the only choice. We all see that Putin is now relying on one lasting thing: constant missile attacks and he has ballistic missiles."

Details: Zelenskyy added that Ukraine needs anti-ballistic capabilities.

Background: On 17 June, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a phone call following the G7 summit with US President Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron.
