Russia is run by men who want to make it a norm – burning lives, destroying cities and villages, dividing people, and erasing national borders through war. There is no nation that can stop such war alone, unaided. World leaders’ engagement is needed…. That’s exactly why global efforts are needed.

I am appealing to the leaders of the world who are still aside from the global efforts of the Global Peace Summit – to President Biden, the leader of the United States, and to President Xi, the leader of China. Please, show your leadership in advancing peace. Real peace, not just a pause between the strikes”. said Zelenskyy
While taking about Russian’s shelling in Kharkiv, Zelenskyy declared, despite people living in the city, Russia continues to shell their city.
“I am now in Kharkiv, a city in the east of Ukraine, and unfortunately, very close to the border on Russia. More than a million people are in this city and every night and every day, the Russian army is shelling the city, mostly with S300 missiles. These are air defence missiles, which Russia employs to terrorize the land.” said Zelenskyy.
He further added that Russia is weaponizing everything, including hunger.
“There is nothing that wouldn’t become a weapon for Russia, including hunger,” he added.
