UZHHOROD, Ukraine -- Jill Biden made an unannounced visit to western Ukraine on Sunday, holding a surprise Mother's Day meeting with first lady Olena Zelenska to show U.S. support for the embattled nation as Russia presses its punishing war in the eastern regions.
Zelenska thanked Biden for her"courageous act" and said,"We understand what it takes for the U.S. first lady to come here during a war when military actions are taking place every day, where the air sirens are happening every day -- even today." President Joe Biden said during his visit to Poland in March that he was disappointed he could not visit Ukraine to see conditions"firsthand" but that he was not allowed, likely due to security reasons. The White House said as recently as last week that the president"would love to visit" but there were no plans for him to do so at this time.
Biden's visit follows recent stops in the war-torn country by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other members of Congress, as well as a joint trip by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv. At a bus station in the city that is now a 24-hour refugee processing center, Biden found herself in an extended conversation with a Ukrainian woman who said she struggles to explain the war to her three children because she cannot understand it herself.
If this whole war doesn’t stink then something is wrong. Russia has enough of everything to wipe Ukraine of the face of the earth., Oh Yeah 💴 money 💵
Gimme a break
Zelenskyy?
Sure there was an envelope of cash involved too.
Who cares? She should be charged with elder abuse.
Maybe there's a missile with her name on it. One can hope.
Great with fuel pricing out of control I’m glad the taxpayers could fund a trip for her just for this photo shot
Aww.. two of the most corrupt people on the planet.
100’s of thousands of cell phones in Ukraine and no live footage uploaded to any platform ? Just photo opps by the left media ?
