After years of Republicans talking about “freedom,” is there ONE Republican in Congress prepared to stand with Ukraine and democracy?
Or do they ALL agree with Trump that Vladimir Putin, a blood-thirsty dictator, is our ally in this horrific war that he started.
I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US.
There is an aggressor: Russia.
There is a victim: Ukraine.
We were right to help Ukraine and sanction Russia three years ago—and to keep doing so.
By “we,” I mean the Americans, the Europeans, the Canadians, the Japanese, and many others.
Thank you to all who have helped and continue to do so. And respect to those who have been fighting since the beginning—because they are fighting for their dignity, their independence, their children, and the security of Europe.
Russia illegally and unjustifiably invaded Ukraine.
For three years now, Ukrainians have fought with courage and resilience. Their fight for democracy, freedom, and sovereignty is a fight that matters to us all.
Canada will continue to stand with Ukraine and Ukrainians in achieving a just and lasting peace.
Tra i tanti messaggi di solidarietà e sostegno a Zelensky da parte di capi di stato e di governo europei manca quello di @GiorgiaMeloni. Questo non è il momento di nascondersi, ma di mostrare se dietro la retorica sul “patriottismo” e sulla “Nazione” c’è anche un po’ di sostanza.
