With Russia’s war in her home country continuing to rage, Ukraine's first lady, Olena Zelenska, the wife of President Volodymyr Zelensky, addressed a bipartisan group of lawmakers on Capitol Hill Wednesday, the third day of her high-profile Washington, D.C., trip. "I know this is the first time when the wife of the president of a foreign country has the honor to address you within these walls,"...Zelenska presented images of young girls and boys killed by Russian missile strikes, including 4-year-old Lisa, whom she had met around Christmas. "I remember her just like she is here, a cheerful, playful little rascal," Zelenska told Congress. "She is no longer with us. On July 14, Lisa was killed by a Russian missile attack." The first lady also displayed the faces of employees at a Ukrainian shopping mall that was bombed by Russian forces. "They are no more," she said. "The mall is no more. A Russian rocket burned it down and killed them all." Since the beginning of the war on Feb. 24, Russia has launched more than 3,000 cruise missiles, Zelenska said.

Olena Zelenska, the wife of President Volodymyr Zelensky

Does the Ukraine language have feminine and masculine versions of surnames? Is it like French, le and la?

There seems to be no willingness by either side- Russia or Ukraine/NATO to negotiate an end to this war. In light of the horror she describes, and appears to be true, what are they waiting on in order to get to the table? Who is really controlling the defense of Ukraine? Is it Zelensky or is it a western alliance intent on destroying the Russian Army using a combination of Ukraine lives and US treasure?

More needless deaths and destruction to feed the globalist Derp State machine. Zelensky needs to swing alongside Soros. Mass-murdering monsters.

This copy from C-SPAN might have better volume. And C-SPAN skipped Pelosi's vain upstaging, but there's still a bit of clash between the volume of Olena's voice and that of the translator.

You must be slurping up the propaganda from Ukraine and the west.

These weapons mean the war will be extended, Russia will retaliate in areas not previously targeted, more deaths, more loss of territory, more suffering.

Zelensky should have negotiated before this started, but the Western globalists wanted this war.

Ukraine’s kleptocracy led by women like her killed the country.

yes. It is common in Slavic languages. Karenin’s adulterous wife was Anna Karenina.
