I haven't written much in this blog for some time. Every day, there is news of more strikes across Ukraine, more deaths, more suffering. It's unbearable. Unbearable also to think that the greedy bastards that want only to take, and we all know who they are, are perpetrating atrocities on Ukrainian soil, whether they are there physically or not.
Davos is underway. Mark Carney, the Prime Minister of Canada, delivered a powerful and truthful speech, which was met with a standing ovation. Trump made a complete fool of himself and of the United States. Mark Rutte of NATO has once again shown how to appease Trump's appetite for disaster. President Zelenskyy is en route to Davos to reportedly meet with Trump to discuss a potential deal to end the war with Russia. We all know what the outcome will be.
I struggle to think of any leader in modern history who has carried the agony of an entire nation on his shoulders with such quiet dignity, such relentless resolve, and such unwavering commitment to pulling his people out of darkness and toward a future with a possibility of peace and joy. Volodymyr Zelenskyy has endured not only the brutality of an indicted war criminal bent on Ukraine’s obliteration, but the betrayal of an indicted president of the most powerful nation on earth, a man willing to pocket his thirty pieces of silver from the Kremlin while abandoning an ally.
Zelenskyy is not just a wartime president. He is a leader who will take his place in the pantheon of history’s greats. You can see it etched into his face, the sleepless nights, the grief, the weight of tens of thousands of innocent Ukrainian lives lost, a pain he carries not as a political burden, but as a moral one. Yet, even as the White House turns its back and contributes to his country’s suffering through complicity, he stands firm and fiercely devoted to his people.
I feel for Olena and their children. Their father has endured more than his fair share.
Slava Ukraini. Heroyam Slava.
