Speaking on the eve of the NATO summit, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on the alliance to provide effective and unrestricted support to Ukraine, including any weapons the country needs to fend off the Russian invasion.

We ask that the alliance declare that it will fully assist Ukraine to win this war, clear our territory of the invaders and restore peace in Ukraine, he said late Wednesday during his nightly video address to the nation.

Zelensky will speak to the NATO summit by video, the president’s office said.

He appealed to Western countries to stay united in the face what he says are Russia’s efforts to lobby its interests with some partners to bring them over to its side.

We will see who is a friend, who is a partner and who has sold out and betrayed us, he said in an emotional speech.

Together we should not allow Russia to break anyone in NATO, the EU or G-7, to break them and drag them to the side of war.
