Ukrainian President Zelenskyy Visits U.S.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy unfurled a Ukrainian Flag at the conclusion of his speech, before a joint meeting of congress on Tuesday. As he presented the flag to house speaker Nancy Pelosi, Pelosi presented him with a flag that flew over the US Capitol.

In his speech, Zelenskyy stressed that Russia has been using Iranian drones to attack his country, and he is pledging there will be no compromises in trying to bring an end to the war. President Joe Biden and congress are responding with billions in new assistance and a pledge to help Ukraine pursue a just peace.

Biden welcomed Zelenskyy to the Oval office on Wednesday, saying the US and Ukraine would continue to project a united defense, as Russia wages a brutal assault on Ukraine's right to exist as a nation.
