Ukrainian President/actor Volodymyr Zelensky told the Danish Parliament on Tuesday that the key to defeating Russia is Europe adopting “green energy and green technologies.”
After briefly describing alleged war crimes and atrocities committed by Russian troops in his nation, the thespian leader suddenly shifted to talking about climate change.
“Long before this war, it was clear that humanity should reduce the use of fossil fuels,” he said. “The era of coal and oil has caused huge damage to the environment, to our planet as a whole. Green technologies and green energy have become a logical and just answer to this challenge.”
Zelensky claimed Russia’s aggression against Ukraine and all of Europe is strengthening the need “to accelerate green transformation on the continent.”
“Europe must give up Russian oil, give up as soon as possible!” he proclaimed. “Because it is the crazy income from energy resources that allows the Russian leadership to be bold, violate generally accepted rules, promote hatred against other nations, against us, and destroy the lives of neighboring countries.”
