Russia has forgotten the lessons of World War II, according to Zelensky, who commented on Hitler's Jewish ancestry.

Ukraine war: The war is now in its tenth week, and the US has warned that Moscow intends to annex the eastern region.

Russia appears to have forgotten the lessons of WWII, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky said in his daily address on Monday, in yet another series of strong remarks amid Moscow's offensive and Kyiv's resistance as the war enters its tenth week. "I am at a loss for words...No one has heard any denial or justification from Moscow." All we have from there is silence.... This means that the Russian leadership has forgotten all of World War II's lessons. "Or maybe they never learned those lessons," the 44-year-old leader explained.

Here are ten points about the Ukraine conflict:

1. The remark by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov that German dictator Adolf Hitler "had Jewish blood" sparked widespread outrage. "So, when they say, 'How can Nazism exist if we're Jewish?' Hitler, in my opinion, also had Jewish ancestors, so it doesn't mean everything. "We've heard for a long time from Jewish people that the worst antisemites were Jewish," he was quoted as saying in reports.

2. The comments elicited strong reactions from Zelensky, who is also Jewish. Israel, which has a Jewish majority, also sought an apology.

3. U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer issued a vehement condemnation of Lavrov's remarks. "You're deceiving no one. "Russia's crimes are as clear as day to the rest of the world," he said.

4. The United States has warned that Russia is formally preparing to annex embattled regions in the war-torn country's east. After Moscow failed to capture Kyiv, the war's focus has shifted to the cultural centre of Odessa, near the Black Sea, and rebel-held areas in the east.

5. According to reports, United Kingdom Prime Minister Boris Johnson will deliver an address to parliament on Tuesday that will compare the eastern European country's struggle to Britain's during World War II. He is set to tell parliament that the fight against the Russian invasion is Ukraine's "finest hour."

6. Following Germany's major shift on Monday, the European Union is set to tighten sanctions against Moscow.
