Ukrainian President Zelenskyy criticizes Iran’s support for Russia during Congress speech
Iran has been accused of sending drones to Russia for use in the Ukraine war.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized the Islamic Republic of Iran during his speech to Congress Wednesday evening.
Zelenskyy came to Washington to meet US President Joe Biden and secure more aid for Ukraine as it fights against Russia’s invasion of the country.
Speaking in his quintessential army green sweatshirt, Zelenskyy spent much of the speech bashing Russia and thanking the United States for its support. He also referenced Iran’s alleged military support for Russia in the Ukraine war.
“When Russia cannot reach our cities by its artillery it tries to destroy them with missile attacks and allies in the genocidal policy with Iran,” said Zelenskyy. “Iran has become a critical threat to our infrastructure. The terrorists have found each other.”
