That Zelensky sure is a little mean prick for not allowing them to attend the funeral, isn't he? I wonder how many seconds it would have taken to raise transportation money on GoFundMe if money was a problem to get here.

“She was sweet, the whole neighborhood loved her. She did a lot of pet sitting for neighbors, she was a good, sweet person,” said the neighbor, who asked to remain anonymous, adding that her father couldn’t attend the funeral because he’s eligible to be drafted into the war against Russia.

“””That Zelensky sure is a little mean prick”””

I think President Trump needs to contact Mini Z and set him straight.

Everyone is so eager to talk and report about this story and we get nothing but contradictions.

The girl came here with her family....she didn’t come here with her family...which was it?

Who said that they couldn’t attend the girl’s funeral? The article is guessing just like everyone else is...

Who knows the truth? Mike Gallagher on the radio this a.m., didn’t have any more information than anyone else but that doesn’t stop them from babbling all day every day.

You are talking rot, the mother of Iryna is in the USA with other family members.

There is no evidence that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is preventing Iryna Zarutska’s family from traveling to the USA or intervening in their specific case.

Her mother has been living in the United States since fleeing Ukraine with Iryna and other family members in 2022, and the funeral was held in Charlotte, North Carolina, where Iryna resided—meaning no international travel was required for her mother to attend.

she has two siblings: a sister named Valeriia and a brother named Bohdan. They both emigrated to the United States with her and their mother in 2022 and are currently living there, likely in Charlotte, North Carolina.

her father was unable to attend her funeral in the US due to Russia’s invasion, which prohibits men aged 18-60 from leaving the country to ensure military readiness.
