Russia has forgotten World War II lessons: Zelenskyy on Russian Minister's Hitler remark
In his video message, Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that all they have received is silence, which proves that the Russian leadership has forgotten the lessons of World War II.
FollowUkraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on Monday, stated that the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov's suggestion that Nazi leader Adolf Hitler had Jewish origins indicates that Russia has forgotten or never learned the lessons of World War II.
In his video message, Zelenskyy stated, "I don't have words." Adding that, nobody has heard any justification or denial from Russia. All they have received is silence, which proves that the Russian leadership has forgotten the lessons of World War II. Zelenskyy added, "perhaps they never learned about those lessons."
Meanwhile, on the war front, in a remote address to Ukraine's parliament on Tuesday, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will offer an additional £300 million ($376 million, 358 million euros) in military aid, according to his office.
Johnson will connect with Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada since the Russian invaded Ukraine on February 24, to hail its resistance as its finest hour.
The new military aid will include electronic warfare equipment, a counter-battery radar system, GPS jamming equipment and thousands of night vision devices.
