Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s office’s advisor has called for Russia to be expelled from the G20 forum of leading nations.

Senior presidential aide Mykhaylo Podolyak said that shouldn’t be in G20.

“Those who give orders to attack critical infrastructure to freeze civilians and organize total mobilization to cover the frontline with corpses, cannot sit at the same table with leaders of G20 for sure,” Mykhailo Podolyak, adviser to the head  of the President’s office, tweet

“Time to put an end to ru-hypocrisy. RF must be expelled from all platforms,” he said.

Russia was expelled from the G8 in 2014 over its annexation of Crimea. The G20 is set to meet in Bali, Indonesia, next month. The Kremlin has not yet confirmed whether President Vladimir Putin will attend, but said that Russia will participate.
