Zelensky prepares to pitch Congress—and the public

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to give a high-profile virtual address to members of Congress on Wednesday morning as he tries to build pressure on the U.S. and European allies to ramp up their military support of his nation under siege.

Zelensky’s speech will be the second time he’s spoken before members of Congress this month, but the first time he’ll have a chance to make his pitch directly to Americans in a publicly broadcast address.
