Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy rejected an offer from the U.S. to evacuate Ukraine’s capital and said he needs “ammunition, not a ride.”

The Ukrainian president was reportedly asked to evacuate Kyiv, Ukraine’s capital, by the U.S., according to The Associated Press. Zelenskyy declined, instead asking for more ammunition to help fight off the Russians advancing into the city.

While it’s unclear exactly how far Russian forces have made it into Kyiv, the city was facing a slew of airstrikes on Friday and reports indicated troops were closing in.

Zelenskyy confirmed in a video posted on Twitter that he remains in Kyiv and plans to fight.

“I’m here. We are not putting down any arms. We will protect our country, because our weapons are our truth,” he said in one video posted Saturday, according to The AP.
