"Terror, unfortunately, can spread like a virus when it does not meet sufficient counteraction. Now our counteraction must be sufficient, strong enough. The first battles with North Korean soldiers have opened a new chapter of instability in the world," Zelenskyy said in his nightly video address as he thanked Ukraine’s allies around the world.
