Zelensky reacts to video of execution of Ukrainian POW
Ukraine's president has called on world leaders to respond to Russian atrocities.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in a video on his Telegram account.
Zelenskyy commented on the video of the execution of a Ukrainian soldier which appeared on social networks yesterday. He said that the episode was no accident - the Russians have done such things before, and therefore the world should react to the atrocities.
There is something that no one in the world can ignore: how easily these beasts kill. The world needs to see. This is a video of Russia as it is. This is a video of Russia trying to make this very thing the new norm - this habit of destroying life. It is not an accident. It is not an episode. It was like this before. It's been like this in Bucha. Thousands of times.
Zelensky also called on world leaders to respond to this brutality, and said that Ukraine will not forget this crime and will not forgive the killers.
No one will understand if the leaders do not react. Now we have to act! And we in Ukraine need to focus on the front as much as possible. Help as much as possible. Chase the occupant from our land! The main goal is to win. The main goal is for Ukraine to win. Defeat the occupiers, sentence the murderers, tribunal the evil state.
Dmytro Kuleba, head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry, also reacted to the occupiers' atrocities. He said that Russia is worse than ISIS terrorists and its presidency of the UN Security Council is absurd.
A gruesome video showing Russian servicemen beheading a Ukrainian prisoner of war is circulating on the Internet. It is absurd that Russia, which is worse than ISIS, is chairing the UN Security Council. Russian terrorists should be kicked out of Ukraine and the UN and held accountable for their crimes.
