Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on world leaders today to abandon neutrality, step up military support for his country, and stay united as it tries to repel a Russian invasion. “In this world you cannot remain on the sidelines,” he said.
NEW YORK — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called Tuesday for world leaders to abandon neutrality, step up military and other support for his country, and stay united as it tries to repel a Russian invasion.
“You definitely have to choose sides,” Zelenskyy said. “You cannot vacillate between good and evil, light and dark.” The event crowd shouted “I love you” to Bill Clinton as he arrived on-stage. Many appeared surprised when Zelenskyy beamed in, and gave the Ukrainian leader a standing ovation. A Ukrainian counteroffensive in recent weeks has pushed Russian forces out of swathes of the country’s east, including in the Kharkiv area, and psychologically boosted Kyiv and its partners. With whispers of going for all-out victory over Moscow, Ukraine wants the United States and its allies to send it more weapons and other aid.
