Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday called for a “decisive and united” global response to the “terror” of Iran and Russia, condemning Tehran’s night attack on Israel.
“Ukraine condemns Iran’s attack on Israel with Shahed drones and missiles,” he wrote on the X social network, calling for everything possible to be done to avoid an “escalation” in the Middle East.
“In Ukraine we know well the horror of similar attacks by Russia, which uses the same Shahed drones and Russian missiles, the same tactics of massive air strikes,” he added, referring to Iranian-made drones.
The Ukrainian leader stated that “Iran’s actions threaten the entire region and the world, just as Russia’s actions threaten a broader conflict, and the obvious collaboration between both regimes to sow terror must receive a decisive and united world.
“It is essential that the US Congress make the necessary decisions to strengthen the allies of the United States at this critical moment,” advocated Zelensky, who demands more military aid from his partners to confront the Russian invasion, which began more than two years ago. .
But political divisions in Washington have stalled the process, so a $60 billion aid package remains blocked in Congress, much to kyiv’s chagrin.
