“If you don’t do this, and if you don’t give us at least planes so that we can defend ourselves, then only one conclusion can be drawn - you also want us to be killed very slowly,” he said in a video message on Telegram.
Zelensky blamed the world's politicians, "Western leaders from today and forever."
Earlier, Zelensky said that NATO deliberately refused to close the sky over Ukraine.
According to him, the countries of the alliance have created a narrative that "closing the skies over Ukraine will provoke direct Russian aggression against NATO."
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed that the alliance is not a party to the conflict in Ukraine.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov did not rule out that Zelensky is trying to provoke a conflict between Russia and NATO, as evidenced by his "militarist frenzy."
