According to the South China Morning Post, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky leveled accusations against the United States, suggesting Washington was unwilling to provide assistance to Ukraine, subsequent to a Russian bomb attack on Thursday that resulted in the deaths of at least 35 individuals in the eastern region. This incident increased the cumulative death toll from Russian strikes over a two-day period to more than 70.

Following the strike on the city of Kramatorsk, which reportedly impacted two buses, Zelensky criticized Washington's approach, specifically mentioning its pursuit of economic relationships with Russia while simultaneously attempting to mediate the conflict that has lasted for more than four years.
