New Alliances

 

He proposed “to create an association, United for Peace, a union of responsible countries that have the strength and consciousness to stop conflicts, immediately provide all the necessary assistance in 24 hours, if necessary-even weapons, if necessary, sanctions, humanitarian support, and political support.”

 

“If such an alliance would exist today…we would be able to save thousands of lives in our country, in many countries of the world who need peace, those who suffer inhumane destruction,” Zelenskyy said.

 

“To be the leader of the world means to be the leader of peace.”
