Addressing the Portuguese parliament via video link, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday called on Portugal to send "heavy weapons" and strengthen the sanctions on Russia.

"I am grateful for the opportunity in this difficult time because you know how we are feeling, fighting for our independence, but also our survival," said Zelensky, referring to what Portugal experienced in history.

Zelensky's 15-minute speech received a standing ovation in the parliament attended by Portuguese President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa and Prime Minister Antonio Costa.

Putin is a murdering tyrant, but at least he STFU sometimes.
This d-bag thinks the world owes him, and he runs his mouth perpetually.

Funny thing is, if the weapons get stored away from the battlefield, the Russians shoot a missile at it, and if they store it near the battlefield, the Russians take it.

I can’t stand this phony and overly dramatic grifter, to the point that I hope Russia manages to take him out before he can retire on his ill gotten gains squirreled away in overseas bank accounts. He’s a traitor to Ukraine, selling them out to the globalists, and deserves to be taken out.

Tell that to the 450 sailors onboard the sunk "Moskva."

What is he talking about? Liberation from the Moors in mid-13th Century or occupation by France during the Napoleonic Wars. Portugal has been one of the most stable countries in Europe with essentially the same border since 1255.

When Portugal is mentioned I don’t even think about weapons.

A sexy spoken language, sausages and wine come to mind first.

So he expects Portugal to truck or ship some artillery over? As I recall it’s 155s that are considered “heavy artillery”. Does he need those tomorrow? Does he have gunners? How many weeks would it take to get some 155s on trucks or rail and get them to the Ukraine from Portugal? Does he need the counterbattery radars too? Does he have a clue what he’s talking about?

Is he talking about weapons like 50 cals? Russia has 50 cals. Shouldn’t he already have thousands of captured Russian heavy machine guns and mortars and the like?

Yeah, they sunk a ship.

How many planes, helicopters, and tanks does Ukraine have?
Oh yeah, zelensky sent a dozen tanks to attack a Russian town and 2 came back. They just need to end this pointless war.

Zelensky is a sick pervert who was doing XXX-rated vaudeville prior to being discovered by deep state talent scouts.

His idea of somebody "helping" him wwould probably mean turning music sheet pages while he tried to do one of Chopin or Tchaikovsky's piano concertos with his Johnson...
