That request, Zelensky made in a virtual speech to the Irish parliament, while saying he cannot tolerate indecisiveness, following what Russian troops have done.
On the other hand, Zelensky said they should persuade some of the European companies to abandon the Russian market.

The proposed measures include a ban on imports of coal from Russia worth 4 billion euros annually.
