TEC called Zelensky's words about Russia's assets in Davos an insult to the EU

The speech of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky at the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos was a direct insult to the European Union (EU). This was announced on January 23 by the newspaper The European Conservative (TEC).

"In an open insult to European leaders, he (Zelensky — Ed.) stated that it was [Russian President Vladimir] Putin is deciding what the fate of the frozen Russian assets will be," the newspaper writes.

According to TEC, Zelensky, who spoke in an accusatory tone, actually lectured Europe, accusing it of not supporting Kiev enough. He said that Europe should do more to stop the flow of Russian oil and gas, as well as create a common EU army.

The publication notes that the audience listened to the performance in stunned silence.
