President of Ukraine to world leaders: "visit Israel"
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, at the beginning of the war, called on leaders from around the world to come and visit Israel, saying, "We are in our own war, and we understand what it's like to endure severe terrorist attacks." Zelensky remarked, "I remember the early days of Russia's war in Ukraine. It was a terrible tragedy with many casualties. It was very important that people did not feel alone."
"When there is a feeling of support, it helps the soldiers defend their land, their citizens, and their lives," Zelensky emphasized. "For this reason, my recommendation is that all world leaders come to visit Israel and show their support for the Israeli people. I'm not talking about institutions, but just to support all the people who have suffered from terrorist attacks, whose loved ones died in war. Unity is more important than anything else; that's what we've learned in recent years."
