The President of Ukraine addressed the UN Assembly this afternoon
Volodymyr Zelensky has addressed the UN assembly this afternoon.
He called on Europe to offer more support for Moldova amid interference from Russia.
He said: "Moldova is defending itself again from Russia's interference. We are helping Moldova and Russia is trying to do to Moldova what Iran once did to Lebanon and the global response again is not enough.
"Georgia is dependent on Russia, and for many, many years, Belarus has also been moving towards dependence on Russia. Europe cannot afford to lose Moldova too."
"For Europe, supporting the law of stability is not costly, but failing to do so will come at a much higher price," the Ukrainian President added.
"That is why the EU needs to help Moldova now with funding and energy support, not just wars or political gestures.
"We must not forget about protecting the rights about people and the rights of nations."
