(Washington, DC) -- Ukraine's President is urging U.S. lawmakers for more help as his nation struggles with the ongoing Russian invasion.
During a virtual speech to members of Congress, President Zelensky called it a brutal and full scale Russian invasion. Speaking through a translator, Zelensky said Ukraine "doesn't give up." He thanked the U.S. for aid that has been provided and again urged NATO allies to establish a no-fly zone to stop Russian bombers. Zelensky posed the question, "Is this too much to ask?"
The Ukrianian President called it a brutal and full scale Russian invasion, saying it's a "terror that Europe has not seen" since World War Two.
He also said new packages of sanctions against Russia are needed every week. Meantime, Zelensky played a video of Russian bombardments of Ukrainian cities and the impacts on the people of Ukraine. He received a standing ovation from U.S. lawmakers.
