Once again Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has taken his requests and demands of Western backers a big step further while lambasting lack of action and adequate support.
In a weekend Telegram post he warned that North Korean troops are already mustering just inside Russia within striking distance from Ukraine, and that long-range missiles are needed from the West to directly attack their encampments.
“Now we see every site where Russia is accumulating these soldiers from North Korea on its territory – all their camps,” The Ukrainian leader began. He urged that Ukraine needs the capability to attack “preemptively”.
“We could strike preemptively if we had this opportunity – to strike at a sufficiently long range. And it depends on the partners,” Zelensky continued.
That’s when he lashed out against his own allies who have provided Ukraine’s military billions up to this point. “But instead of such necessary long-range attacks, America is watching, Britain is watching, Germany is watching,” he stressed. “Everyone is just waiting for the North Korean military to start attacking Ukrainians as well.”
