2:28Now PlayingUkrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged South Korea on Monday to provide his country with arms to help it defend against Russia's invasion.
Zelenskyy spoke in a video address to South Korean lawmakers that came hours after Seoul’s Defense Ministry confirmed it had rejected a Ukrainian request for anti-aircraft weapons during a call between the countries’ defense ministers last week.
The ministry cited the South Korean government’s principle of limiting its military help to Ukraine to non-lethal supplies.
Joining U.S.-led international sanctions against Moscow, South Korea has already banned the export of strategic materials to Russia and ended transactions with key Russian banks and sovereign wealth funds.
Zelenskyy thanked South Korea for those efforts but said sanctions alone haven't been enough to meaningfully stop the Russian aggression.
He highlighted Russia’s takeover of Mariupol, where he said at least tens of thousands of citizens were likely killed.
The president briefly stopped his speech to play a graphic video showing buildings hit by rockets, Russian tanks firing as they rolled through destroyed streets and people wailing over dead relatives at overwhelmed hospitals.
Zelenskyy said Ukrainian forces haven’t been able to enter Mariupol since the start of March and that Russian forces have cut off humanitarian shipments.
"This is Russia's war not just to conquer Ukraine. This is only the first step," he said. "It wants to destroy everything that makes us Ukrainians, makes us a separate nation, and then it wants to go further to Europe, further to Asia. "
