Popular Post webfact Posted June 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2022 As Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tells it, when Russia invaded 100 days ago, no one expected his country to survive. World leaders advised him to flee. “But they didn’t know us,” he said in a late-night video address in April when the war hit its 50th day. “And they didn’t know how brave Ukrainians are, how much we value freedom.” He could have been speaking about himself. No one knew how a 44-year-old man who had catapulted himself from the world of entertainment into the presidency would respond to an invasion by Russia’s giant army. His response has been forceful — and compellingly public. Zelenskyy has led his country in mounting an unexpectedly fierce resistance. Every night, he rallies Ukrainians to the fight with a video address on social media. There have been 100 so far – one for each day of the war — in nightly reminders that he has not fled, that Ukraine has indeed survived.

aussienam Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 The war atrocities are piling up. I had a video consultation with an eye lens specialist from Ukraine. A really decent guy just earning a living and supporting his wife and kids. His house got bombed - no insurance and all he had and saved for for many years. He has had to flee and managed to seek haven in Spain to start all over again. His neighbour got raped by Russian soldiers and another murdered. Just civilians living their lives caught up in the horrors of war. Heartbreaking stories. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthainess Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) What ever happens, even if Russia 'wins' the war, Ukraine's will still and always be the winners and Russia's murderer Putin will ALWAYS be the loser, Russia or Putin will Never win the hearts of Ukrainians. One of Zelenskyy's speeches i will never forget. ''I need weapons not a ride ! '' Edited June 5, 2022 by brianthainess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
