Nearly a year after the Russian invasion, world leaders are meeting on Friday February 17 in Munich for a Security Conference. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke and called on allies to “accelerate” support for Ukraine.
“We need speed. Speed ??to conclude our agreements, speed of deliveries to strengthen our fight, speed of decisions to limit the Russian potential. There is no alternative to speed, because it is on it that life depends, “said the Ukrainian president during a video intervention.
He also recalled that there was “no alternative to Ukraine’s victory” and referred to its “entry” into the EU and NATO.
For his part, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz stressed that Germany’s support is designed “to last a long time” and called on countries that can deliver tanks to “really do it”. “Ukrainians are defending their freedom at great sacrifice and with absolutely impressive determination,” he added.
Then, the French president took the floor to say: “We are ready for a prolonged conflict. Saying that, I don’t want it. But especially if we do not wish it, we must collectively be credible in our ability to last in this effort. »
