Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky asked citizens around the world to take to the streets to protest against what he described as Russia’s invasion of his country.
‘Come with Ukrainian symbols to support Ukraine, to support freedom, to support life,’ Zelensky said in a video address in English. ‘Come to your squares, to your streets, make yourselves visible and heard.’
As the anniversary of the first month of the conflict occurs, Zelenskyy called on people around the world to ‘to stand against the war starting from March 24 and after then’ to speak up against Russia’s bloody war.
‘Show your standing, come from your offices, your homes, your schools and your universities, come in the name of peace,’ Zelensky said.
‘Say that people matter. Freedom matters. Peace matters. Ukraine matters. From March 24 in downtowns of your cities, all as one together who want to stop the war.’
Hundreds of civilians in the Ukraine have been killed since the conflict started, hundreds more injured and more than three million Ukrainians said to have left the country since the conflict began on February 24th.
