KYIV, Oct 6 – Russia must be clearly condemned on international arena for this attempt to annex Ukrainian territory, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in his video address to the Australian Lowy Institute.

The head of state said that on September 30 the Russian president announced the purported annexation of Kherson, Zaporizhia, Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine, which was Russia's new attempt to repeat the events of 2014, when it annexed Crimea.
