An advocate for Ukraine stood outside Downing Street today to support the nation’s conflict with Russia.
I didn’t stop to ask him questions since he was speaking yet I took a picture and moved on.
He sounds eloquent – and defiant – in his beliefs and cause. It’s inspiring to see.
The trouble with Ukraine is it doesn’t often get a voice, but it has President Zelensky. This is a bonus for a state that hasn’t had a voice before in any meaningful way with us.
I’m inspired by the efforts of Ukraine to repel just an invasion and keep the conflict contained.
It’s to Ukraine’s credit to do this, and to make sure we don’t see war, too.
It’s a bonus that we’ve witnessed leadership like this, albeit in Ukraine and not nearer our shores.
This is a debt we have to repay. So maybe we should get on with it and show leadership here. This is our duty, after all.
