NATO is hypnotised by Russia: Zelensky

PBC News:  Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky speaks to European leaders in London and has expressed his frustration with NATO over their refusal to implement a no-fly zone.

In a video call to UK PM Boris Johnson and other countries in the Joint Expedition Force, Zelensky said Nato was “the strongest alliance in the world” – but “some of the members of this alliance are hypnotised by Russian aggression,” BBC reports.

“We hear a lot of conversations about the third world war, that allegedly it could start if NATO will close the Ukrainian sky for Russian missiles and planes and therefore the humanitarian no-fly zone was not yet established,” he said.

“That allows the Russian army to bombard peaceful cities and blow up housing blocks and hospitals and schools. Four multi-storey buildings in Kyiv in the early morning were bombarded, dozens of dead.”
