Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Russia’s attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure are aimed at creating a new wave of refugees, APA reports citing CNN.

Speaking to the European Council in a video address, Zelenskyy said after failing to use energy resources as a weapon against Europe, “the current Russian leadership has ordered to turn the energy system itself into a battlefield. The consequences of this are very dangerous, again for all of us in Europe.”

“Attacks by Russian cruise missiles and Iranian attack drones have destroyed more than a third of our energy infrastructure,” he said. “Because of this, unfortunately, we can no longer export electricity to help you maintain stability.”
