Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky will give an historic virtual address to the House of Commons chamber at 5pm today.
The embattled leader, whose messages in military fatigues to his nation and “terrorists” Russia have inspired millions, will be beamed in on TV screens in the chamber.
It is a rare accolade not normally offered to world leaders, who traditionally deliver addresses to both Houses of Parliament outside the chamber, such as in Westminster Hall.
