Vladimir Zelensky/OP
Today, March 26, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky spoke at the 20th Forum in Doha, the capital of the Arab Emirate of Qatar.
He began his speech with the greeting “Assalamu alaikum “, which means “Peace to you”.
Peace is a basic value that unites all people on Earth. And this is the value that is not available to people in my country now,” the president said.
Zelensky said that Russia does not want peace, but wants those times when peaceful coexistence of peoples in equality was impossible on Earth.
The leadership of Russia decided to seize Ukraine and make it their colony as in the old days of the empire, when they came and took away someone else's property with brutal force. When Russia, taking one thing, thought that it could still be taken from others,” he recalled.
Zelensky said that over the course of the 20th century, the world had developed a whole system of international structures that should guarantee justice in absolutely every state. But Ukraine cannot find justice in the world for 31 days after a full-scale invasion by a state that is 28 times bigger.
