President Volodymyr Zelensky got a first-hand look at the destruction in the frontline southern port city of Mykolaiv, a rare trip for the Ukrainian leader outside the capital of Kyiv, according to reports.

Zelensky’s office posted a video on Telegram of the visit to the city of roughly 485,000 people near the Black Sea, which has been repeatedly pummeled by Russian shelling.

Probably because the Ukrainians are approaching the outskirts of Kherson in recent hours.

$44 Billion sent by USA to Ukraine so far.
Guess total sent by ALL of Europe? Less than $30 Billion.
We are such suckers sending money we don’t have any the national debt is now 30% higher than GDP
But neocons are happy.

You know what I’m sick of, people who think it’s all just about him and that he can do no right. Give the man some credit. He’s visiting the front lines, and putting himself in harm’s way, and he’s definitely a target.

Mykolaiv is where the Lubavitcher Rebbe was born. All these cities have their histories.

Note that he hasn’t left Ukraine since the war started. Why not?

Mykolaiv was the headquarters of the Ukrainian Navy. I don’t think that the shipyards and ports are functional after Russian shelling.
