KYIV, Ukraine — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky calls on the West to increase military aid to Ukraine, saying Russia would advance on the rest of Europe otherwise.

“If you do not have the power to close the skies, then give me planes!” Zelensky says at a press conference.

“If we are no more then — God forbid — Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia will be next,” he says, adding: “Believe me.”
