Austrian Opposition Lawmakers Protest Zelenskyys Address To Parliament

Austrian lawmakers from the opposition Freedom Party (FPOe) walked out of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's virtual address to parliament on Thursday amid fears about the country's eroding neutrality.

Zelenskyy joined the morning session in the lower house by video link as he seeks to drum up support for a Ukrainian military offensive against Russia-held territories.

Legislators of the right-wing FPOe left the chamber shortly after the Ukrainian leader started speaking.

The session was broadcast live.
