Immediately signed the documents transferred from the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine: the law on multiple citizenship, the ratification of the Agreement on the Establishment of a Special Tribunal regarding Russia's crime of aggression against Ukraine, as well as the suspension of the Ottawa Convention on Anti-Personnel Mines for Ukraine.

Lifting the ban on anti-personnel mines
"Thanks to steps regarding the use of certain types of weapons, including anti-personnel mines, we will be able to achieve at least parity in forces and means necessary to protect against Russian aggression," Zelenskyy pointed out.
The President of Ukraine emphasized that "Russia has never been a party to the Ottawa Convention and has never taken honest steps within any policy of arms reduction or humanization of weapons practices."
I instructed government officials to immediately work out and adopt all by-laws for the implementation of these laws. We can already begin to identify the first partner states with which multiple citizenship will be introduced. I expect the government and the Office team to present a schedule for fulfilling the agreements on launching the tribunal. We are also activating defense decisions that will support our warriors
