Zelensky doubles down on pressure over diplomacy.
Commenting on the Istanbul talks, Zelensky calls his partners and 'everyone in the world' to ramp up sanctions on Russia and restrict its oil trade.
Adding:
Russia just stuck Ukraine with a 103.6 billion hryvnia ($2.5 billion) bill
That’s what Kiev now owes to the families of 6,000 dead soldiers—assuming all the bodies are identifiable.
Under Ukrainian law, each family is entitled to up to 17.27 million hryvnias, or about $422,800.
Multiply that by 6,000 and the total hits 103.6 billion hryvnias, or $2.5 billion USD.
ℹ️As of June 2025, the Ukrainian government provides a one-time financial compensation to the families of military personnel who have died in the line of duty. The standard compensation amount is 15 million Ukrainian hryvnias (UAH), which is approximately $367,200 USD at current exchange rates.
Additionally, there is a separate provision for a one-time cash benefit calculated as 750 times the subsistence minimum for able-bodied individuals, which, as of January 1, 2024, is 3,028 UAH. This results in a payment of approximately 2,271,000 UAH (around $55,600 USD).
