Ukrainian first woman begs Congress for more assistance against Russia
Ukraine's most memorable woman, Olena Zelenska, conveyed comments to Congress in person Wednesday as her nation proceeds with its guard against Russia's attack, requesting that individuals for weapons assist with finishing the contention.
"Since we maintain that each dad and each mother should have the option to tell their kid to nod off calmly, there will be no more airstrikes, no more rocket strikes. Is this an excessive amount to want? she said.
Zelenska tended to legislators Wednesday morning in a Capitol Visitor Center Hall — a similar setting where her significant other, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, addressed Congress practically in March, only half a month after Russia's military entered the country.
Zelenska shared insights regarding Russian rocket assaults on the nation, intensely zeroing in on kid casualties who have been killed or harmed.
She portrayed one of the youthful casualties, Lisa, as a "lively, fun-loving little rapscallion. As she talked, a video played behind her, showing Lisa strolling to school with her mom pushing her own buggy. The photograph to follow was Lisa's carriage pushed over by a Russian rocket assault that killed the 4-year-old.
"Those are Russia's 'Yearning Games' — chasing after serene individuals in quiet urban communities of Ukraine. They won't ever communicate this on their news. That is the reason I'm showing it to you here," Zelenska said.
She showed different pictures of different casualties, including other small kids and a whole family who have kicked the bucket in the conflict.
"This young lady is Eva. She jumped at the chance to draw pictures. She was just five," Zelenska said while showing an image of a little dead body amidst ruins.
