Zelensky: No one helped Belarusian people, and now Oreshnik within range of European capitals

January 22, Pozirk. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, criticized Western democracies, and Europe in particular, for a lack of resolve in fighting dictators and dictatorial regimes.

“When you refuse to help people fighting for freedom, the consequences return. And they are always negative. Belarus in 2020 is an example,” he said.

“No one helped their people, and now Russian Oreshnik missiles are deployed in Belarus within the range of most European capitals.”

This would be not have happened if the Belarusian people had won in 2020. “And we have told our European partners multiple times act now. Act now against those missiles in Belarus. Missiles are never just decoration. But Europe still remains in Greenland mode [a reference to Europe’s incoherent response to US threats to annex the Danish territory]. Maybe someday someone will do something.”

Zelensky criticized the US President Donald Trump for inviting Russia and Belarus to join his Board of Peace for Gaza “although the war has not stopped,” and “there is no even ceasefire.” Europe even failed to work out a common position on the American plan, he added.
