"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says strong messages of solidarity and support
00:06
are important factors in morale for soldiers fighting on the front line."
00:10
"It gives such signal not only to the world and Europe, also to our people who are defending
00:19
European world.
00:21
This feeling is very important not to lose it, not to lose the morale of the soldiers
00:25
that they are not alone, they are on the front line."
00:28
He was speaking in Kiev to a delegation of MEPs from the Liberal Renew Group in the European
00:33
Parliament of which his party is a member.
00:36
The visit comes as part of the preparations for the European elections in June.
00:40
"It's much better than when the focus is not only on the war because of different elections
00:47
in Europe and in the United States.
00:50
It's an important signal for men, women, our children that we are part of Europe and Europe
00:57
knows that we are defending for our common values."
01:02
The urgent need for more weapons was also a central issue in the discussion.
01:07
"He knows that we are working for European defence but of course as it has been told
01:14
to us by all the persons we had during these two days, they are asking for more weapons,
01:24
more ammunition and he also confirmed that there is a real need on the ground."
01:32
His message comes as Russia continues to pound Ukraine with ballistic missiles and drones.
01:37
Ukraine says it urgently needs air defences and more consistent military support.
01:42
An emergency meeting of the Ukraine-NATO council was held on Thursday to discuss the renewed
01:46
air strikes, particularly on the capital.
01:50
And as EU member states continue to disagree over how best to support Ukraine in the short
01:54
and long term, with air raid sirens ringing in Kiev and with Ukrainian soldiers suffering
02:00
ammunition shortages on the front line, Putin, it's feared, is gearing up for an even bigger
02:06
war.
