WASHINGTON (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy cited Pearl Harbor and the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 on Wednesday as he appealed to the U.S. Congress to do more to help Ukraine’s fight against Russia, but acknowledged the no-fly zone he has sought to “close the sky” over his country may not happen.
Livestreamed into the Capitol complex, Zelenskyy said the U.S. must sanction Russian lawmakers and block imports, and he showed a packed auditorium of lawmakers an emotional video of the destruction and devastation his country has suffered in the war.

Could use someone like him in DC. They gave him standing ovation, then went to lunch, and did nothing.

I admire in so many ways. If nothing else, the western countries need a way to get more Turkish drones for them. They are accurate and lethal.
I saw a video of like 5 Russian tanks hiding in the forest. One of the drones engaged each target with 100% accuracy.

MAJ Ken Landgren Ken, I keep thinking that if our own society had a quarter of the grit, unity, and determination the Ukrainians have displayed throughout these last weeks, we'd regain and achieve the lofty goals and dreams we've had for so long.
