Ukraine’s President, Volodymyr Zelensky, begged the European Union to grant his country immediate membership on Monday, February 28, 2022, as Russia’s attack on the pro-Western country entered its fifth day.
“We appeal to the European Union for the immediate accession of Ukraine via a new special procedure,” Zelensky said in a new video address.
“Our goal is to be together with all Europeans and, most importantly, to be on an equal footing. I’m sure it’s fair. I’m sure it’s possible.”
Russian soldiers should lay down their arms and flee for their lives, according to the 44-year-old president.
“Abandon your equipment. Get out of here. Don’t believe your commanders. Don’t believe your propagandists. Just save your lives,”
Zelensky claims that more than 4,500 Russian soldiers have died as a result of the Kremlin’s onslaught, and that if they are eager to join the fight against Russia, Ukraine will release convicts with military expertise.
