US President Joe Biden made an unannounced visit to Ukraine Monday, February 20, to meet with President Volodymyr Zelensky, a gesture of solidarity that comes days before the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of the country. I saw his speech in the BBC world News
"One year later, Kyiv stands," Biden said. "And Ukraine stands. Democracy stands. The Americans stand with you, and the world stands with you." Biden spent more than five hours in the Ukrainian capital, consulting with Zelensky on next steps, honoring the country’s fallen soldiers and meeting with US embassy staff in the war-torn country.
The connected events in the form of a verse
The first world war happened;
The league of Nations was created hurriedly.
Powerful Nations agreed on several treaties,
To ensure lasting peace.
And the world breathed a sigh of relief;
Alas! The organization failed miserably.
The longer the Russo-Ukraine war goes on,
the further the hope of peace is pushed away.
The war is not just
making two warring Nations bleed
It's the sole purpose of misadventurism
of US-led NATO indeed.
And the high hope of post-covid boom,
have given way to terrible gloom.
Inflation grew exponentially,
The scale of poverty is set to rise phenomenally.
War and destruction
are not new phenomenon
to our civilization
Time and again, we promise ourselves,
We'll not embark on wars again
but soon we seem to forget
and get embroiled in them.
often, I wonder what'll happen to our leaders
who flaunt their strength and arrogance and
unleash acts of hegemony,
rather than ensuring for humanity
To live with peace and harmony.
For humanity To live without agony.
