Ukraine’s president said on Friday that his country has been left on its own to fight Russia after the Kremlin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine invasion that killed over 130 Ukrainians in the first day and pleaded for help as civilians piled into trains and cars to flee.
“We have been left alone to defend our state,” Volodymyr Zelensky said in an emotional video address to the nation after midnight. “Who is ready to fight alongside us? I don’t see anyone. Who is ready to give Ukraine a guarantee of NATO membership? Everyone is afraid,” he added. Zelensky said that 137 “heroes,” including 10 military officers, had been killed and 316 people wounded. The dead included all border guards on the Zmiinyi Island in the Odesa region, which was taken over by Russians.
