Children under Rubble after Russian Airstrike on Maternity Hospital, Says Zelenskiy
THE GUARDIAN: Authorities say at least 17 wounded including women in labour as shelling again halts evacuations
Russian bombs have “completely destroyed” a children’s and maternity hospital in Mariupol, Ukrainian authorities have said, as shelling again halted mass evacuations from several cities, including the devastated southern port where conditions are described as “apocalyptic”.
As Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmitryo Kuleba, accused Russia of “holding 400,000 people hostage” in Mariupol, much of whose population has been without power, heat, water or phone signal for over a week, the president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, denounced an atrocity.
“Mariupol. Direct strike of Russian troops at the maternity hospital,” Zelenskiy tweeted. “People, children are under the wreckage. Atrocity! How much longer will the world be an accomplice ignoring terror? Stop the killings! You have the power but you seem to be losing humanity.” With video » | Luke Harding in Lviv, Julian Borger in Washington, and Jon Henley | Wednesday, March 9, 2022

Zelenskiy Says Threat Level at Maximum and Warns of Mass 'Humanitarian Catastrophe' without No-fly Zone
THE GUARDIAN: The Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, has said that the international community would be responsible for a mass “humanitarian catastrophe” if it does not agree a no-fly zone and warned that the country is at maximum threat level.
“Russia uses missiles, aircraft and helicopters against us, against civilians, against our cities, against our infrastructure. It is the humanitarian duty of the world to respond,” he said in his daily televised address, reports Reuters. » | Léonie Chao-Fong (now); Miranda Bryant and Royce Kurmelovs (earlier) | Wednesday, May 9, 2022

The president of Ukraine echoed Winston Churchill and invoked the fight against Nazism as he made a direct plea to Britain to do more to help protect his country in the fight against the Russian invasion.
In an unprecedented and emotional speech broadcast live to the House of Commons, Volodymyr Zelenskiy channelled Churchill when he told a packed chamber: “We will continue fighting for our land, whatever the cost. We will fight in the forests, the fields, the shores and in the streets.”
Ukraine “will not lose” to Russia, he vowed. Zelenskiy, who received long ovations from MPs before and after his speech, also cited Shakespeare to describe the plight of his country under Russian invasion, saying it was a question of “to be or not to be”.
“For 13 days this question could have been asked but now I can give you a definitive answer. It’s definitely yes, to be,” he said, according to a translation of his speech, which was delivered in Ukrainian and broadcast live from Kyiv.
“And I would like to remind you the words that the United Kingdom has already heard, which are important again. We will not give up and we will not lose.” » | Peter Walker, Political correspondent | Tuesday, March 8, 2022

President Zelenskyy's Exclusive Interview with David Muir: ABC News
The West needs to create a no-fly zone to help the Ukrainians. The West needs to find its mojo and defy and challenge the Russians. Putin will never be satisfied with Ukraine alone. After Ukraine, he will move on to the Baltic states or the previous Soviet satellites such as Poland and Rumania. The longer we delay, the worse it will be for the West. We need to grow a spine. War with Putin is what we will get whichever way we play it. Weakness never won any war We need to stand four-square behind the Ukraine. – © Mark

The Phone Has Become the Ukrainian President’s Most Effective Weapon
THE GUARDIAN: Analysis: Zelenskiy has managed to achieve an unheard-of range of sanctions against Russia thanks to a tireless round of calls to allies
In a string of phone calls from a besieged Kyiv, Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, has persuaded the west to agree to a set of sanctions against Russia that were inconceivable a week ago.
Sensing how European public opinion is responding to the bravery of his people, Zelenskiy has been constantly on the phone to western leaders, using his Twitter feed to cajole, encourage, scold and praise his allies. In the process, sanctions regarded as unthinkable a week ago have become a moral baseline. The pace at which the west has been agreeing to the new sanctions has also left the lawyers, officials and bankers gasping for air, officials admit, as they work under severe pressure to turn headlines into reality.

A Plea to the Free World, US and Israel: Tell Putin That Zelensky Must Not Be Harmed
THE TIMES OF ISRAEL: Ukraine’s president fears he is Russia’s ‘number one target’ and his wife and children are number two. Our pledged support for Ukraine must include demanding his safety
Russia “has marked me down as the number one target,” Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky warned in a video message early Friday. “My family is the number two target. They want to destroy Ukraine politically by destroying the head of state.” He reportedly told EU leaders in a video call late Thursday that it might be the last time they see him alive.
Having interviewed Zelensky barely two years ago in his presidential offices in Kyiv, and with my heart going out to him and his people, I want to issue what is both a personal and a principled plea to the US, the free world, and emphatically Israel’s leadership, too, to do their best to ensure that he is not targeted or harmed.
President Joe Biden on Thursday stressed that while American troops would not be deployed to fight Russia in Ukraine, the United States “will support the Ukrainian people as they defend their country.” In a conversation with Zelensky on Thursday, he condemned the Russian invasion and, similarly, promised “to provide support and assistance to Ukraine and the Ukrainian people.”
In a phone call of his own with Zelensky on Friday, Israel’s Prime Minister Naftali Bennett “offered Israel’s assistance with any humanitarian aid needed,” the Prime Minister’s Office announced, “and said that he stands by the people of Ukraine in these difficult days.” » | David Horovitz | Friday, February 25, 2022

Ukraine President Zelenskyy Delivers Impassioned Speech at MSC 2022 | DW News
Feb 19, 2022 • Speaking on the second day of the Munich Security Conference, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy challenged members of the European Union and NATO to take their relationship with Ukraine seriously.
In emotional remarks, he thanked partners for their rhetorical and material support in the face of Russia's military build-up on Ukraine's borders. But he said they have Ukraine to thank for standing up to Russian aggression for years and protecting the rest of Europe from it.
Still, Zelenskyy said diplomacy is the only means for Ukraine to regain the territory it lost when Russia attacked in 2014. That led him to question Russian claims that they are not seeking to do so again now. Christiane Amanpour was on hand to conduct an in-depth follow-up interview with Zelenskyy.
