Invoking two of America’s darkest hours — Pearl Harbor and 9/11 — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tried to rally additional support from Congressional lawmakers on Wednesday, calling for more military assistance as Russian troops continue their slow slog toward Kyiv.

Appearing via video from an undisclosed location in the Ukrainian capital, Zelenskyy renewed his request for a no-fly zone, additional defense systems, new sanctions against Russia — including the withdrawal of all U.S. businesses — and a block on Russian imports.
