If Russia manages to take over Ukraine this will also cause pain and suffering to other European states, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said in his speech to the Danish Parliament, APA reports citing Agenzia Nova.

Guaranteeing however that Russia "will not be able" to achieve this objective, he noted his country will resist. "Now the Russian evil is causing pain and death in Ukrainian cities and villages", explained Zelensky, according to whom the aggressor country "openly affirms that it will not limit itself to Ukraine". “Then, after our country, they want to bring this suffering to Europe and further into the world. And I'm sure you will hear it from Moscow. All of Russia's neighbors are threatened if Ukraine does not resist,” Zelensky stressed.

The president noted that in the event of a Russian victory in the conflict, it will not be possible to resurrect international law. According to Zelensky, each of the world's democracies can become a target, "either for missiles, or for mercenaries, or for destabilization." “But Ukraine will rise again. I want you to know it, see it and feel it. Ukraine will rise again,” concluded Zelensky.
