Zelensky Predictably Uses Hospital Strike to Make Weapons Pitch at NATO Summit
Russia placed blame on Ukraine for striking the hospital
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the world’s greatest showman, used the deadly strike on a children’s hospital in Kyiv to try and get NATO to lift any limitations on the use of Western-provided weapons — so he could strike deeper into Russia and escalate the war.
“We understand from what military base they attack us, and if they attacked us and killed our children in the hospital, that is crazy question why we can’t answer and attack this person, this military base, where from these guided bombs from jets, or missile came, targeted us, killed our children,” Zelensky said.
Russia rejected claims that it bombed a Ukrainian children’s hospital last week that killed two and injured 50, calling the strike nothing more than a “PR stunt built on blood.”
RITTER TO ZELENSKY: ‘YOU DID THIS’
Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesman, went further and called the strike a “PR stunt” and was obviously an air defense missile that was fired incorrectly by the Ukrainians.
TRENDPOST: Ray McGovern, the former CIA analyst, told the Judge Andrew Napolitano podcast that he heard about the strike on the hospital and that he wanted to go on record saying that he “smells a rat.”
