Zelensky in a tragic situation – Blame the West
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, visibly upset, demanded that Western countries offer a small part of their arsenal and asked if they were afraid of Moscow.
“Ukraine can not shoot down Russian missiles with rifles and automatic weapons. “Ukraine has been waiting a long time for the required arms supplies,” Zelensky said.
Several countries have promised to send anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, as well as lighter weapons. However, Zelensky stressed that Kyiv needs tanks, fighter jets and anti-ship weapons systems.
“These are what our partners have and they just collect dust where they are. “All this is not only for the freedom of Ukraine, but for the freedom of the whole of Europe, ” Zelensky said in a video message late Saturday night.
According to him, Ukraine needs only 1% of NATO aircraft and 1% of the North Atlantic Alliance tanks and has pledged not to ask for more.
“We are waiting for 31 days. Who is responsible for the Euro-Atlantic community? “Is Moscow really still intimidated?” He said.
Earlier on Saturday, Zelensky had a conversation with Polish President Andrei Duda and expressed disappointment that Russian-made fighter jets in Eastern Europe had not been sent to Ukraine.
“The price of procrastination over aircraft is the lives of thousands of Ukrainians,” Zelensky was quoted as saying by the Ukrainian presidency. He noted that Poland and the United States had both stated their readiness to take such a decision.

“Lugansk Republic” announces referendum on joining Russia
Russia-backed self-proclaimed “Luhansk People’s Republic” in eastern Ukraine will soon hold a referendum on joining Russia, local leader Leonid Pasetsnik said today.
“I think in the near future a referendum will be held in the territory of democracy, ” Pasetsnik was quoted as saying by a local news outlet.
“People will exercise their ultimate constitutional right and express their opinion on joining the Russian Federation.
“I am sure for some reason that this will happen, ” Pasetsnik told reporters on Sunday.
Today, the “Luhansk Republic” controls about 95% of its historic territory.
Once the Donetsk Republic acquires the land it needs to be able to stand as a state, then the referendum is a one-way street.
Moscow will never return to Ukraine the land corridor connecting Crimea-Kherson-Mariupol-Donbass-Russia. It is a matter of the highest Russian national security.
The accession of the Luhansk People’s Republic to the Russian Federation will provide an opportunity to preserve this region and any subsequent attack on Luhansk will be considered an attack on Russia.
