Zelenskyy Slams Europe's 'Groundhog Day' on Security at Davos, Urges Decisive Action

• Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized Europe at the World Economic Forum in Davos for its indecisive approach to defense and security, comparing it to the film 'Groundhog Day'.
• Zelenskyy highlighted that Europe has not built its own robust defense response, with many countries only increasing investments after pressure from former US President Donald Trump.
• He questioned the lack of accountability for Russian President Vladimir Putin, contrasting it with the arrest and trial of Venezuela's Maduro, and criticized Europe's inaction on Russian oil exports and establishing a tribunal for war crimes.
• Zelenskyy warned about the consequences of inaction, citing Belarus as an example where Russian missiles are now deployed, and urged Europe to overcome divisions and act with collective resolve.
• Earlier, Zelenskyy held a closed-door meeting with Donald Trump in Davos, who later stated that the war 'has to end' and there's 'a ways to go'.

Why It Matters: Zelenskyy urged Europe to move beyond repetitive discussions and take decisive, united action on defense and security.
