Yes. Zelensky needs more money.
Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky had his participation curtailed on the NATO summit in The Hague, Netherlands, but he is still trying to make the best of all opportunities to pursue his never-ending fundraising goals.
In a Defense Industry event ahead of the summit, Zelensky did his basic fear-mongering, ‘warning’ Europe that they risked attacks by Russia unless Ukraine ‘defeated’ them.
The two-day NATO event is designed to display NATO unity.
“’Russia is even planning new military operations on NATO territory – meaning your countries’, Zelensky told a defense industry event on the sidelines of the summit, hours after Russian missiles killed at least 11 people in southeast Ukraine. ‘No doubt we must stop Putin now, and in Ukraine, but we have to understand that his objectives reach beyond Ukraine. European countries need to increase defense spending’.”

“Trump was pressed by travelling reporters to say whether he remained committed to mutual defense among allies as set out by NATO’s Article 5, and responded:
‘I’m committed to saving lives. I’m committed to life and safety. And I’m going to give you an exact definition when I get there’.”

After skipping their meeting during Trump de G7 in Canada, Trump is now expected to meet Zelensky during the summit.
Zelensky wants to discuss ‘substantial purchases of weaponry’ including the sorely missed Patriot missile defense systems.
