During his visit to London, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the UK Parliament. He thanked all the people of the United Kingdom for the assistance they provide to Ukrainians.
Radio Liberty was broadcasting the speech.
"Thank you for your bravery. From all of us. London has stood with Kyiv from day one. From the first seconds and minutes of the full-scale war, Great Britain, you extended your helping hand," he emphasized.
Zelenskyy addressed former Prime Minister Boris Johnson personally, who was in the audience during the speech. The Ukrainian president emphasized that Johnson had united others at a time when it seemed absolutely impossible.
"You all showed your character, your strong character. And you did not change your principles after that. Thank you for that," he emphasized.
Zelenskyy emphasized: "Russia will lose... It will be a victory over the very idea of war," he said.
"We and the world need your leadership to continue this fight. When full-scale war broke out, we, together with you, the United Kingdom, and the United States, were able to form a coalition of true friends. It was you who helped us even before the invasion began. You did a lot to prevent this invasion," the president added.
He also thanked the UK for the weapons provided, which helped prevent the occupiers from advancing further. However, the evil still exists, and bloody battles continue right now, and every day Ukraine is paying for future victory with lives.
Today, the President of Ukraine arrived in the UK. It is his second foreign visit since the full-scale invasion.
