Zelensky’s powerful message to Europe
This morning President Zelensky gave an incredible address to the European parliament via videolink from inside Kyiv.
As he sat in front of his country’s flag, he said Ukraine was paying an incredibly high price for the right to live as freely as the rest of Europe.
He reminded leaders that Ukrainians were giving their lives so their children could live in peace and as “equal as you are”.
“I am not reading from a script, because the phase of scripts for Ukraine has ended. We are giving away our best people, the strongest ones, the most value based ones,” he said.
“We have a desire to see our children alive, I think it is a fair one. We are fighting for survival. We are fighting to be equal members of Europe.
“We are exactly the same as you are. So do prove that you are with us. Do prove that you are indeed Europeans and then life will win over death and light will win over darkness. Glory be to Ukraine,” he added.
