Back in February, an anonymous US official invented a B-level action movie quote by Zelensky: “I need ammunition, not a ride”
Turns out he needs both, as he’s taken a US military jet to Washington, clad in fake battle dress, to beg for more than $45 billion in “ammunition.” https://t.co/v7CWfEF9i5

Zelensky told Biden that Ukraine needs more Patriot missile systems and told Congress they need to send him more artillery along with US tanks and planes.
"Ukraine never asked the American soldiers to fight on our land instead of us," Zelensky claimed in his speech before Congress -- just weeks after Ukraine was caught bombing Poland and blaming Russia for the strike in a bid to con America and NATO into the war. "I assure you that Ukrainian soldiers can perfectly operate American tanks and planes themselves."
"We have artillery, yes. Thank you. We have it. Is it enough? Honestly, not really," Zelensky said.
