Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky said his country is no longer pressing for NATO membership, a delicate issue that was one of Russia's stated reasons for invading its pro-Western neighbor.
"I have cooled down regarding this question a long time ago after we understood that...NATO is not prepared to accept Ukraine," he said in a television interview.
Later in the day, the US banned Russian oil imports in its latest punishment for Russia for invading neighbouring Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Ukraine began evacuating civilians from Sumy today after Russia opened humanitarian corridors. Ukrainian and Russian officials today agreed to establish corridors in capital Kyiv and four other cities to move out civilians.
