President Volodymyr Zelenskyy plans to attend June's D-Day commemorations in France, followed by a G7 meeting in Italy, where he will ask Ukraine's partners to shoot down Russian missiles over Ukraine, provide more assistance to Ukraine's Armed Forces, and seize Russian assets. Politico reported this, citing two people familiar with the president's plans. "The Ukrainian president’s schedule could always change, both people emphasised. But if all goes to plan, Zelenskyy is expected to use this trip to call, as he has in recent interviews, for more military support from the West and ask for NATO to shoot down Russian missiles like the United States and the United Kingdom did when Iran attacked Israel. Zelenskyy will also demand that the US and European countries seize Russian assets to help fund Ukraine’s defence and eventual reconstruction", Politico reported.
