Ukraine’s President linked the assault by Hamas on Israel with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and criticized Iran over both conflicts.
“The only difference is that there is a terrorist organization that attacked Israel and here is a terrorist state that attacked Ukraine. The intentions declared are different, but the essence is the same”, - Zelensky told NATO’s Parliamentary Assembly in Copenhagen via video link.
Iran can’t say it has nothing to do with what is going on in Ukraine if it sells Shaheds [drones] to Russia. Iran can"t say it has nothing to do with what is going on in Israel, if its officials claim the support of what is going on in Israel”, - he added.
“This is not the time to withdraw from the international arena into internal disputes. This is not the time to isolate ourselves. This is not the time to remain silent or pretend that the terror on one continent does not affect global affairs”, - said Volodymyr Zelensky.
