Zelensky gives German MPs a painful reminder of history

Appealing to MPs to help stop Russia's war, he drew on Germany's own experience, both from World War Two and the fall of Communism.
He spoke of the 108 children killed since the invasion began and said every year politicians remembered the Holocaust and said "never again - and now we see those words are worthless".
Ukraine had repeatedly turned to Germany before the war to limit economic ties with Russia, he reminded MPs, but instead Berlin had helped Russia erect a wall "between freedom and bondage". "Tear down this wall," he said.
After he finished, the Bundestag moved swiftly on to a debate about compulsory Covid vaccinations. One opposition MP, Sepp Müller, complained that bombs were falling on theatres where children were sheltering and, instead of having a proper debate, the government was going back to "business as usual".
