Zelenskyy has been addressing parliaments around the world via video link urging countries to send more money and arms, called diplomacy \u201cone of the key fronts\u201d in the battle to win the war against Russia. His comments came as a delegation of politicians from Ukraine\u2019s parliament visited Washington to push the United States for increased assistance, specifically military equipment.  Joe Biden has led the Western response to the February 24 invasion, levelling unprecedented sanctions against Russia and funnelling weapons and aid to Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I don&#8217;t know much about Morocco-Russia relations but I find it significant and interesting that they will not be cracking down on Russia. I speculate that they either that the country receives some product from Russia, and they don&#8217;t want to disrupt their chances of receiving that product. I think from a Russian point of view, any country that isn&#8217;t joining sanctions needs to be brought in as a friend as they do not have many friends at this moment. It will be interesting to see if any Western nation attempts to warm up to Morocco so that they do not side with the Russians should it come to it. I don&#8217;t know much about the history of Morocco and foreign conflicts but this could also just be their way of staying out of something that doesn&#8217;t really affect them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Link to Article: https:\/\/www.aljazeera.com\/news\/2022\/3\/31\/zelenskyy-recalls-ukraines-ambassadors-to-morocco-and-georgia Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has recalled ambassadors to Morocco and Georgia, suggesting the diplomats had not done enough to convince those countries to punish Russia for its invasion last month. \u201cWith all due respect, if there won\u2019t be weapons, won\u2019t be sanctions, won\u2019t be restrictions for Russian business, then please look for other work,\u201d Zelenskyy said&#8230; <a href=\"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/2022\/04\/04\/zelenskyy-recalls-ukraines-ambassadors-to-morocco-and-georgia\/\">Read more &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":195,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5156","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-article"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/195"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5156"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5156\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5157,"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5156\/revisions\/5157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5156"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/baileyonlineclassroom.com\/middleeastandnorthafricablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
