Zelenskyy complains West won’t even talk about shooting down Russian missiles

Ukraine said there was a double standard earlier this year when Kyiv saw a wide coalition of Western countries helping Israel to repel a massive Iranian attack of missiles and drones.

Ukraine has been suffering huge Russian missile and drone strikes almost daily, with some targeting gas storage sites near the EU border, while some stray drones have even flown into the territory of Romania, Poland and now Latvia.

But Kyiv’s partners so far see shooting down missiles over Ukraine as them more explicitly entering the war and potentially escalating the conflict with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.  

Polish President Andrzej Duda said on Aug. 24 that NATO countries are continuing to discuss joint protection of the Ukrainian sky from Russian attacks. But German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said he sees that as being out of the question and, so far, the U.S. has been in lockstep.
