President Zelensky pleads for more military support — saying he knows how Winston Churchill felt during WWII
The Sun says PRESIDENT Zelensky has pleaded for more military support — and said he knows how Winston Churchill felt during World War Two.
He was on a clear mission to put more pressure on Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, standing just yards away, to supply fighter jets in the face of Russian aggression.
His 20-minute lunchtime speech to MPs and peers was made in Parliament’s Westminster Hall — where the Queen lay in state last year.
Former Prime Ministers Liz Truss, Theresa May and Boris Johnson all stood in the vast hall as the sun beamed in through the stained-glass windows behind Mr Zelensky.
The leader of war-torn Ukraine even symbolically presented Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle with a helmet from one of his pilots.
Inscribed on it were the words: “We have freedom. Give us wings to protect it.”
