Ben Hodges: It's 'criminal negligence' not to let Ukraine strike deep into Russia - DW News [View all]



Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has again urged allies to allow his country to use Western weapons to attack deep inside Russia.

On Friday Zelenskyy spoke at Ramstein air base in Germany where representatives from some 50 countries had gathered for talks hosted by US defense secretary, Lloyd Austin. Zelenskyy later met German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for talks in Frankfurt.

Zelenskyy wants to secure more weapons to help his nation push the Russian invaders off Ukrainian territory.
