Zelensky accuses ‘some friends in Europe’ of playing into Russia’s hands

Volodymyr Zelensky has accused “friends in Europe” of playing into Russia’s hands over food imports.

During a speech at the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, 19 September, the Ukrainian president said: “Some of our friends in Europe, play out solidarity in a political theater – making a thriller from the grain.
