Democracy vs Dictatorship
"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit to Washington served as a poignant reminder to Americans that Ukraine’s fight against Russian invaders is a battle pitting defenders of freedom against autocrats like Vladimir Putin bent on grabbing power through conquest and subjugation.
In a plea to President Joe Biden and the U.S. Congress, Zelensky eloquently laid out the stakes for Western democracies if the Kremlin leader prevails in his unprovoked war ravaging Ukraine. If Putin defeats Ukraine, Zelensky said, he would continue his quest for a new Russian empire...
“Your money is not charity,” the charismatic Ukrainian leader said of $50 billion in military and humanitarian aid already provided by Washington. “It’s an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way.”
Zelensky’s address to a joint gathering of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives evoked comparison with a similar appeal by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill in December 1941, the last address to Congress by a wartime ally."
Really hoping it has the same result.
