Ukraine’s First Lady Olena Zelenska has said that people in her country are in “mortal danger” of being left to die if aid extended by Western countries to fight Russia is not continued, the media reported. Her comments come a day after the Republican Senators in the US blocked a key aid bill which would have provided $60 billion.
“If the world gets tired, they will simply let us die,” Zelenska said in an interview on BBC’s ‘Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg’. In the interview that will be telecast on Sunday, Zelenska expressed grave concern over delay in funding.
