As the war in Ukraine entered its fourth week on Thursday, the President of the war torn country, Volodymyr Zelensky has lamented that Russia had already crossed all known red lines in the ongoing war vowing not to give up.
In a live interview with the NBC News which was monitored by Africa Daily News, New York, on Thursday, Zelensky lampooned the West for not doing enough to stop Russia.
Asked if the use of nuclear weapons would mean that Russia had crossed the red line, Zelensky said Russia began to cross red lines the moment its troop began to kill Ukrainian civilians and children.
He explained that World War III had already begun and world leaders should not wait until Ukraine had fallen.
