Zelensky will address the US Senate on Saturday

Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelensky will address the US Senate via videoconference on Saturday, a parliamentary source told AFP.

The conversation will take place on Zoom in the morning, Washington time.

Given the escalation of the conflict in Ukraine, several legislators ask the Biden administration to strengthen retaliation against Moscow and suspend -among other measures- US imports of Russian oil, a step that the White House has not wanted to take.

One US senator, Republican Lindsey Graham, even called for “someone in Russia” to assassinate President Vladimir Putin to do “a great service” to his country and the rest of the world.

For his part, the Ukrainian president implored NATO to establish a no-fly zone in his country, an insurmountable red line for the Biden administration, but one that some US politicians defend.
