Ukrainian First Lady calls for more weapons in US Congress

“The war is not over. Ukrainian First Lady Olena Zelenska, visiting the United States, made a strong plea to the US Congress on Wednesday for more arms deliveries to her country to fight against the Russian invasion, six months after the start of the conflict.

“We are grateful for the presence of the United States on our side in this war,” noted Olena Zelenska according to a live translation of her remarks. “I ask you for more weapons (…) to protect everyone’s homes and the right to wake up alive in those homes,” she said. “Help us (…) and together we will achieve a great victory,” she added during a speech to the American parliamentarians, who rose in unison to applaud her.
