Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has criticized Israel for its reluctance to provide Ukraine with significant military aid following Russia’s 2022 invasion but commended Israel for its recent airstrikes targeting Iranian missile facilities supplying Russia.
In an interview with Fox News foreign correspondent Trey Yingst, Zelenskyy remarked, “We wanted from the very beginning of full-scale war, I think that Israel made a mistake to my mind. On the political level, not on people, because we always had a very good connection with society. On the political level, when Putin occupied us and full-scale war began, I asked Israel’s leaders to help us and support, but they’ve been afraid of Putin.”
Zelenskyy elaborated that his primary request to Israel was assistance in bolstering Ukraine’s air defense capabilities.
Earlier in the discussion, Zelenskyy acknowledged Israel’s October 26 strike on Iranian military infrastructure. This action, carried out in response to Iran launching 181 ballistic missiles at Israel earlier that month, also benefits Ukraine. By disrupting Iranian missile production, Israel indirectly impedes Iran’s ability to supply Russia with missiles for use in its ongoing war against Ukraine.

Zelenskyy is a lowlife intermarried dog. No one asked this anti semite for his worthless opinions.
So sick of this fake blowhard.
Claims to be Jewish without mentioning his maternal line, used to deride both Jews and Russians together in his comedy skits, associated with the worst of Ukrainian society, etc.
Even if he was actually Jewish, his intermarriage and engagement in only Christian practices make him a total meshumad. How disturbing that the Jewish media has been so ga-ga over this destructive fake.
Ukraine was a failed society before the Russian invasion (30% of Ukrainian children suffer severe abuse/neglect due to parental alcoholism, 40% divorce rate, one of the highest rates of human trafficking in the region, the bottom of the economic list of the EU, endemic corruption — eg, unable to even get proper medical care without bribes), and Zelensky could’ve signed the reasonable Minsk peace treaty with Russia, but refused, though fully aware of the consequences.
Ukraine, for years a failed society, will not be able to recover.
It would’ve been better off signing the treaty with Russia.
Why should we help Ukraine, which is also (with some exceptions) an overwhelmingly antisemitic society?
Israel has its own problems and we need to support ourselves.
Why on earth should we give them military aid when we’re running out ourselves? Clearly, Zelensky is fine with Jews in Eretz Yisrael dying for his fake cause.
What a raving megalomaniac.
Just curious – how much aid has Ukraine provided to Israel in its ongoing war against Iran and it terror proxies who are trying to destroy it? How many times has Ukraine voted against anti-Israel resolutions in the U.N?
I support Ukraine completely in its war against the unprovoked Russian invasion, but it takes a lot of chutzpa for Zelensky to call out Israel, especially considering that they’ve done zilch to support Israel ever since Oct. 7.
