Portrait of Volodymyr Zelenskyy Volodymyr Zelenskyy Speech by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Parliament of Finland (2022)

We are told that we have to wait... But I have a question: should both those who kill our people and those who make us wait be held jointly accountable for the deaths of Ukrainians? Those who make us wait for the most necessary. Wait for the opportunity to defend ourselves, our life, wait for the weapons.
I am sincerely grateful to Finland for not delaying when this invasion by the Russian Federation began. For coming to our aid immediately. For the fact that you made a historic decision to provide Ukraine with defense support.
