Russia creates conditions of total poverty for its citizens, so Russian soldiers took out everything of any value from Ukraine, because in Russia people cannot afford even the simplest things, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said, speaking via video link in front of the South Korean parliament on Monday.

" Almost immediately, Russian troops on the territory of Ukraine in those regions where they were able to break into, engaged in looting. They tried to take home to Russia everything that is of any value.. From washing machines to computers. From auto parts to clothing. They just stuffed armored personnel carriers, trucks with it,"

Zelensky noted that Ukrainians were struck by the willingness of Russian soldiers to replace the protective plates from their bulletproof vests with stolen laptops and tablets..

" But this is exactly what we saw on our land when the Russian army broke in,"

According to the head of state, the war in Ukraine is a clash of two different worlds, "

Zelensky called on South Korea to provide assistance with arms supplies to stop the attack of Russia, which intends to destroy the people of Ukraine.

" And you have something that can be indispensable for us,"

According to the President, now the question is not only about the survival of the Ukrainian people, but also about the protection of other states and regions from the further growth of Russian aggression.
