The UN Security Council will meet on July 9 to discuss a Russian missile attack on Kyiv’s Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital that was part of a “massive” attack on July 8 that hit several cities across the country, killing at least 41 people and injuring at least 140, officials said.
Some claim bringing Ukraine into Nato would deter Russia from ever invading the country again. That is wishful thinking
At last year’s Nato summit, the United States focused on improving Ukraine’s self-defense capabilities rather than addressing the country’s potential membership in Nato.
Almost two and a half years since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the Kremlin still retains the ability to shock with the scale of its crimes. On July 8, the targets were Ukrainian children. Not just any children, but kids being treated for cancer, whose daily lives were already full of fear and pain.
This week, 32 NATO allies will be gathering in Washington, DC, amid what they rightly describe as “the most dangerous security environment since the Cold War.”
The overarching message from Ukrainians I’ve spoken to over the past few weeks, including Inna, is: “Help us stop this war — now.”
Dear President von der Leyen,
Ukrainian civil society and advocates for Ukraine’s victory would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your personal leadership in standing by Ukraine in the fight against Russian aggression.
