The summit was held including leaders from France, Germany, Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Turkey, Finland, Sweden, Czechia and Romania, as well as the NATO secretary-general and the presidents of the European Commission and European Council.

The disgraceful and historically embarrassing recent events at the White House are beyond explanation.

On February 28th, there was a tense meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

The exchange was heated, with completely false statements about who started the war and a 180 reversal of policy supporting Ukraine. The two highest officials behaved like bullies and embarrassed themselves and unfortunately our country on a global stage.

As of early 2025, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has verified that approximately 12,605 civilians have been killed since the start of the war on February 24, 2022[1][2].

Additionally, over 46,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been reported killed in the conflict[3]. It's important to note that these numbers are likely higher due to underreporting and the ongoing nature of the conflict.
​
It's a tragic situation, and every life lost is deeply felt. If you're looking for ways to support Ukraine, there are many organizations providing aid and assistance to those affected.
