Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said the U.S. and world are “in awe of the heroism of the Ukrainian people” in a letter inviting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to address a Joint Meeting of Congress on Wednesday.
“America and the world are in awe of the heroism of the Ukrainian people,” Pelosi wrote in the letter. “In the face of Putin’s horrific atrocities, Ukrainian freedom fighters have inspired the world with an iron will and an unbreakable spirit — fighting back against Russia’s brutal, unjustified invasion.”
Pelosi’s letter, dated Tuesday, formally invited Zelensky to address Congress in-person as Ukraine’s conflict with Russia continues. The Speaker released the letter to the public early Wednesday morning, confirming Zelensky’s visit after several reports that said the Ukrainian president was expected to be in the Capitol Wednesday.
Zelensky will also meet with President Biden at the White House on Wednesday. The two are scheduled to hold a joint press conference following their meeting.

Or cheer?
I’d go with ‘throw up’...
Hey Zel! Nanzi is speaking for herself and her home alone, mischief-making husband, Paul Pelosi. Don’t get too excited.
yeah, congrats ukrainians! you killed off hundreds of thousands of men in a useless war that could have been avoided if the EU/US just adhered to making Ukraine a buffer area between Russia and NATO
So, we stand with a dictator, who censors news media, and shuts down any opposition to his control. A guy whose main objective is to promote a globalist agenda..
But Russia did not want a buffer area. And it was Ukraine itself seeking NATO membership, and not the other way around.
Just like Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill?
What she means is US Dems are in awe over Zelensky’s money laundering prowess.
The trip to the US is to work out new cashflow routes due to the demise of the FTX route.
It’s the vile demonic Botoxian praising some of its flying monkeys.....nothing to see here.
This is an opportunity for Zelensky to not only address congress but also the American people.
He can make a big positive difference for his country tonight...
The world is in awe of their ability to raise money...
Safe and effective, free and fair, pure as the wind driven snow Ukraine..
A few whoppers the monkeys in the Banana Republic have tried to sell..
Here come the bots!
Calling all bots ....
YOU, in 1944 -
yeah, congrats Brits!
you killed off hundreds of thousands of men in a useless war that could have been avoided if you had simply accepted Hitler’s reasonable terms, and given him continental Europe
In your concern only for money, You miss entirely the historical point
The world supports the Ukranian effort to defeat the Russian war criminal invaders
It's a mandate.
A bunch of rag heads hiding under rocks in Afghanistan defeated the soviet union. I always expected Ukraine to win, if they WANTED to win.

The number of aircraft at the disposal of the Russian army was close to 4.2 thousand, while Ukrainian armed forces possessed almost 320 aircraft.
Russian military vastly outnumbers Ukraine military in all aspects including defense budget, active military personnel on duty, fleet size, and other military hardware
Russia has more than 900,000 active military personnel on duty, whereas Ukraine has only 361,000 active military personnel
Russia's military spending in 2020, at $61.7 billion, was ten times more than that of Ukraine's $5.9 billion, as per Stockholm International Peace Research Institute https://www.globaldata.com/data-insights/macroeconomic/russia-and-ukraine-military-comparison-overview/
