Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky today made a dramatic appeal to American Jews in support of the Russian invasion, giving a heartbreaking account of the catastrophe in his country from the Russian invasion, which he compared to the one he provoked. all over Europe.
“This is just purely Nazi behavior. “I can not describe it in any other way,” Zelenski said in a video at the Conference of Presidents of American Jewish Organizations. The Ukrainian president continues to push for the delivery of more fighter jets from the West to Ukraine and the imposition of a no-fly zone that NATO has so far rejected.
Zelensky read a list of cities and towns that he said had been destroyed by Russian forces, while the Ukrainians are fighting with what they have, even without weapons.
“They are throwing their bodies in front of the tanks – to understand what is happening here,” the Ukrainian leader, who is Jewish, said in a video call via the Zoom platform.
The Russians are not allowing people to leave the cities they attacked, they are not allowing food and water to enter, and they are disconnecting from the internet, television and electricity, he said.
“It all happened during the Nazi era,” he said. “The survival of the Ukrainian nation – the issue will be the same as anti-Semitism … All these millions of people are going to be exterminated.”
Zelensky said 13 people were killed in a bomb attack on a bakery in Kyiv today and yesterday, Sunday, 50 children suffering from cancer had to be evacuated after a missile struck a pediatric hospital in the city.

The scale and scale of the Russian attack on his country was as unexpected and catastrophic as it was for the Americans on September 11, 2001, he said.
“They are bombing everything that moves,” Zelensky said
