Zelensky vows to fight Russia in 'forests, fields and on shores' as he channels Churchill

Volodymyr Zelensky has told MPs that Ukrainians will fight Russian invaders "in the forests, in the fields, on the shores, in the streets" in a rousing speech that channeled the spirit of Winston Churchill.

Speaking via videolink to the Commons, the Ukrainian president said: "We will not give up, and we will not lose. We will fight to the end in the sea, in the air. We will fight for our land, whatever the costs. We will fight in the forests, in the fields, on the shores, in the streets."

Mr Zelensky thanked the British Government for its support, but called on Western nations to increase their sanctions against Russia.
