United Nations, September 24 (askanews) – Volodymyr Zelensky accuses Russia of using citizens of 47 countries in its war against Ukraine. In his speech at the UN, the Ukrainian president cited Ghana, Nepal, Tajikistan, India, Yemen, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Belarus, Sudan, and South Africa, among others. Zelensky also said that two North Korean soldiers captured by Ukrainian forces have been transferred to South Korea and accused Vladimir Putin of constantly seeking new men to continue the war. “We didn't just have North Korean prisoners of war,” Zelensky said. “We know that Russia is using citizens of 47 countries in its war.
In this war there are Ghana, Nepal, Tajikistan, India, Yemen, Kenya, Zimbabwe, Cuba, Belarus, Sudan, South Africa, and many, many others. And from time to time we receive requests to send certain prisoners of war home." "Recently," the Ukrainian president continued, "we sent two North Korean prisoners of war to the Republic of Korea. These guys are not easy to capture alive.
One of them, when he realized he was about to be taken prisoner, tried to kill himself. And he was shocked that fate did not allow him to die." "Putin is always looking for someone who can help him kill more people per kilometer of land, conquer more territory, attack another country, instead of simply stopping and ruling his own.
After all this, can you even imagine it without a war?” Zelensky concludes.
