Volodymyr Zelensky has condemned the Russian army as 'the most barbaric and inhuman in the world' and said the country will be stained 'as a source of absolute evil for generations' as Vladimir Putin's men stepped up attacks across the country in an effort to seize bloody victory from the jaws of defeat.
Zelensky, in a late-night address to his nation, said Putin's military has been 'purposefully killing civilians' with weapons banned under international law and that once the full scope of their 'war crimes' comes to light 'a Russian passport will mean only one thing in any country: Unequivocal condemnation from all decent people.'
The talismanic president also used the speech to praise his armed forces and people for resisting the invasion as fighting enters its 55th day today, while renewing calls for Ukraine's western allies to send more weapons and faster in order to ensure the Russian army is defeated.
