Ukraine’s Zelenskiy urges NATO Parliamentary Assembly to be united

COPENHAGEN, Oct 9 (Reuters) – Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Monday told NATO’s Parliamentary Assembly that now is not the time to withdraw from the international arena and called for Western unity in the face of global events.

“This is not the time to withdraw from the international arena into internal disputes. This is not the time to isolate ourselves. This is not the time to remain silent or pretend that the terror on one continent does not affect global affairs,” Zelenskiy told the assembly via video link.
