(ANSA-AFP) - ZAGREB, OCT 9 - Balkan leaders will rally to
support Ukraine at a summit on Wednesday as it struggles to
fight off invading Russian forces, with Kyiv pushing for more
military aid. Croatia will host 12 regional states plus
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, on his latest trip to
rally backing from allies as the looming US election throws
Ukraine's fortunes into doubt. The summit will show that the
"whole region supports Ukraine and the Ukrainian people in the
fight for freedom", Croatia's Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic
said. He pledged his country's continuous "solidarity with
Ukraine... including military support". Joining Zelensky and
Plenkovic will be heads of state, premiers and foreign ministers
from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Greece, Kosovo,
Moldova, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia
and Turkey. (ANSA-AFP).
