Western leaders had already been briefed on the plan by the Ukrainian president during closed-door meetings in Europe and the United States in September but it appears to have received a tepid response.
Speaking in parliament, Zelensky called for Ukraine to be formally invited to join Nato while it is fighting Russia’s invading troops, as well as permission to use western long-range missiles to strike targets deep inside Russia. He urged western countries to deploy to Ukraine an unspecified system of non-nuclear deterrence that would be capable of destroying Russia’s “war machine”.

RUTTE, THE MOST HATED PERSON IN THE NETHERLANDS 🇳🇱‼️💯
Why USA became so weak?
Why they can’t give Ukraine more weapon and support? What’s happened with this Democratic system?
What they going to do with russia and another aggressive countries and dictators?
This is it- no more powerful United States ??..
Is US so weak why they took all of the weapon in Ukraine in 1994? Why USA gave the garantes that they will protect Ukraine from aggression in the future and not doing anything now, just small amount of weapon?
If you are not able to adhere to guarantees, then why take away the slaughter?
