Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy gave a speech in front of Congress today. Zelenskyy urged America to continue supporting Ukraine as Russian forces march their way through the country. He also encouraged America to enact a no-fly zone around Ukraine to stop Russian terror in the skies. But what is a no-fly zone? And is it a good idea?
Heritage Foundation Research Associate for Russia and Eurasia Alexis Mrachek joins this bonus episode of The Daily Signal Podcast to discuss what a no-fly zone would entail, as well as dissect the rest of Zelenskyy’s speech.
