Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged Western countries to provide aid to the country's armed forces so they could continue fighting Russia.
“The sooner we stop Russia, the sooner we can feel safe,” Zelenskyy said while addressing defense leaders at a Denmark conference aimed at strengthening financing for weapons, training, and demining work in his country.
“We need armaments, munitions for our defense,” he added, speaking via a live link from Ukraine.
Zelenskyy further said the response now needs to be full-scale, just like the war that Russia started.
“No one needs new disasters. No silence - only the truth. No delay - only decisive action. No confusion - only confident, bold unity,” the Ukrainian leader said at the conference.
