In a discussion with the New York Times reported by RT, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy insisted that the U.S. and NATO should stop pussy-footing around and just shoot down Russian missiles and drones sent against Ukraine. As RT correctly prefaced his remarks, “Zelenskyy spoke to the U.S. outlet in Kiev, on the last day of his presidential term, which he has sought to extend for the duration of martial law he declared due to the conflict with Russia.”
Zelenskyy told the Times: “So my question is, what’s the problem? Why can’t we shoot them down? Is it defense? Yes. Is it an attack on Russia? No. Are you shooting down Russian planes and killing Russian pilots? No. So what’s the issue with involving NATO countries in the war? There is no such issue,” Zelenskyy told the Times. “Shoot down what’s in the sky over Ukraine,” he added. “And give us the weapons to use against Russian forces on the borders.”
