The International Committee of the Red Cross prohibits the use of its emblem on our vehicles on humanitarian missions, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his video address, APA reports.

"You know, I was told that the Red Cross, the International Red Cross, forbids us from using the emblem on our vehicles that carry out humanitarian missions. They forbid the Red Cross as if it were their property. And this is significant. It says a lot. That some people, very influential people, have decided to put an end to the Ukrainians. But I will not allow this. We will not allow this. Our friends. They are next to us," the head of state said.

He added that he would appeal directly to the people of the world if the leaders of the world did not make every effort to stop this war.

"Of course, we continue to talk with partners, leaders, parliamentarians of all countries who know how to help Ukraine," Zelensky stressed.
