World War 3 is already underway – Ukraine’s ambassador to the UK

Ukraine’s ambassador to the UK, former commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhnyi, believes that after Russia directly involved Russia’s autocratic allies in the war against Ukraine, it can be considered that World War 3 has already begun in 2024.

He expressed the statement during his speech at the UP-100 award ceremony, reports Ukrinform.

“I believe that in 2024 we can absolutely believe that World War 3 has started. Because in 2024, Ukraine is no longer facing Russia. Soldiers from North Korea are standing in front of Ukraine. Let’s be honest. In Ukraine, Iranian Shaheds are already killing civilians quite openly, without any shame, are already flying towards Ukraine, and they openly declare that Chinese projectiles are launched in Ukraine Russian missiles,” noted Zaluzhnyi.

In his opinion, most of the military agrees that all the factors mentioned give reason to say that a world war has begun and that the world should prepare for it.

“What has been expected for so long has already begun. But I want to say that God himself gives a chance not only to Ukraine, but also to the whole world, that we still have time to draw the right conclusions. You can still stop it, on the territory of Ukraine. But for some reason our partners are not willing to win this battle on their own. Therefore, I think that the world war, welcome, it has begun,” added the former commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

As previously reported, President Volodymyr Zelensky suggested that Ukraine may lose the war against Russia if the US cuts aid to Kiev.

According to Zelensky, North Korea has already delivered a large amount of weapons to Russia for the war against Ukraine, including at least 3.5 million 155 mm artillery rounds, as well as missiles. The Ukrainian side has all the solid evidence to prove this. According to the Pentagon, more than 10,000 North Korean soldiers have been deployed in the Kursk region to help Russia maintain its war against Ukraine.

The president also reported that Iranian representatives were present during the first Shahed launches on Ukrainian cities, because at the beginning almost none of the Russian specialists could operate these UAVs properly.
