Ukraine's President Zelensky asks EU leaders for fighter jets - BBC News

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has called on EU leaders to provide fighter jets and arms for the war against Russia, on his second trip abroad since the war began.

"We have to enhance the dynamics of our co-operation, we have to do it faster than the aggressor," President Zelensky said.

He was earlier given a standing ovation at the European Parliament in Brussels.

Several EU leaders have already stressed that a decision on warplanes would be a collective move.

mr zelensky mr comedian you have no right to bring nuclear war upon us, we got our countries, our citizens and our families, so fight your war with Russia away from us . There are many other wars in the world but it dose not mean we have die because of that.

I don’t think he spends much time in Ukraine, and I’m pretty sure that broadcast bunker isn’t.
A master manipulator, that one. Imagine if one country said no to his demands.

[perrybelcourt]

Tell his wife to stop spending taxpayers money in Paris on herself because people in the Ukraine are suffering

[serviosilver]

Zelenski is a poor man who saw the opportunity to get power but became a coward and weak by trying fighting the country that was its partner.

[pedrooquendo]

Looks like 'Ghost of Kyiv" isn't doing well

This is the most shameful phase in the history of the European Union! Very soon this chapter will be considered one of the most shameful chapters in the history of Europe!

Here's Europe's boss, do as he says! Give him aircrafts, helicopters and their carriers. He's about to launch the biggest modern era conquest, make sure he succeed. What a charade.

[Thunderfist_McBeefcake]

Went to the UK, in person, just to ask for jets.
