Zelenskyy on closing the sky: Ukraine will appeal directly to the peoples of the world if leaders do not help

Ukraine will turn to the peoples of the world for support if world leaders do not help close the skies.

This was stated by Zelenskyy during a video address on March 8.

"I will appeal directly to the peoples of the world if world leaders do not make every effort to stop this war. This is genocide. Of course, we continue to talk to partners. With leaders, parliamentarians of all countries who know how to help Ukraine…

But there are things that are not decided in negotiations. Which don't depend directly on us. But only on humanity, which must win in the leading capitals. Fear must be overcome. Must win any benefits. And then we will see that the Ukrainian sky is safe. And if the world is aside, it will lose itself. For good. Because there are unconditional values. The same for everyone. First, this is life. That is exactly what we are fighting for in Ukraine. Very strongly with our military. This is exactly what these weak occupiers want to deprive us of. That is what the world must protect," Zelenskyy said.
