Mitten in der globalen Eskalation durch den Iran-Krieg warnt Selenskyj vor einem gefährlichen Fokus-Verlust des Westens. Er spricht über die bittere Erkenntnis, dass Patriot-Raketen nun im Nahen Osten statt über Kiew gebraucht werden, und seine Sorge, dass US-Präsident Donald Trump die Sanktionen gegen russisches Öl de facto aushebeln könnte.
