“We will not surrender, we will not lose”, Zelensky makes strong statements before British deputies

During the talk, Zelensky compared the war with Russia to Britain's efforts in World War II.

He gave a daily tale of the war, explaining how Ukrainian families were hit by rockets and air strikes, but “ran out of fighting” when Russia demanded that they drop their weapons.

This did not break us, despite this”, he said.

Zelensky cited the attack on Europe's largest nuclear power plant and a NATO meeting that did not end as Ukraine had hoped.

He said he feels the military alliance “does not function properly”, referring to its failure to agree to implement a no-fly zone.

Speaking of the situation at Marioupol, he said: “They don't allow any food, water, and people start panic”.

The Ukrainian president added that over 50 children have been killed so far in the conflict.

These are children who could have lived. But these people took them away from us”, he said.

He said the question about Ukraine now is “to be or not to be” and for 13 days “this question could have been asked, but now I can give you a final answer, yes, to be”.

I'd like to remind you of the words the United Kingdom has already heard, which are once again important,” he said, before the Churchill provided. “We will not surrender, we will not lose, we will fight to the end, at sea and in air, we will continue to fight for our land regardless of the cost.

We'll fight in the woods, in the fields, on the coast, on the” street.

He added that Ukraine is “seeking your help”.

“We are grateful for this help and I am grateful for you Boris”, he said.

Zelensky later urged Johnson to step up pressure on Russia by further sanctions and recognise it as a “terrorist state”.
