President Joe Biden went to Ukraine on Monday to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an unexpected and defiant display of solidarity against Vladimir Putin, to mark the first anniversary of Russia’s unjustified Ukrainian invasion. “One year later, Kyiv stands,” President Biden announced as he stood beside President Zelensky in front of Mariinsky Palace. Biden continued: “And Ukraine stands. Democracy stands. The Americans stand with you, and the world stands with you.”
I am in awe of what these women--and Ukrainians in general--are doing. Essentially, they are fighting a war with 1 1/2 hands held behind their collective back (no attacks into Russia, no planes, it took forever to get them any tanks and offensive missiles, etc., etc.), and they are more than holding their own. Slava Ukraini!
There’s not nearly enough love on this post. Thank you for sharing these incredible women with us.
