1:06Now PlayingPresident Vladimir Putin said Monday the “economic Blitzkrieg” of international sanctions on Russia had failed, citing the recovery in the ruble to pre-war levels. That recovery, however, came after Russia imposed tight capital controls.
The Russian leader also gave a special elite designation to an army unit that Ukraine has accused of committing war crimes in the northern town of Bucha.
The remaining defenders of Mariupol are encircled but haven’t surrendered the key eastern port city, with troops holding out at the giant Azovstal steelworks, Ukrainian officials said. A deadly strike was reported in Lviv near the Polish border, while air raid sirens were heard in the capital Kyiv for a second day.
