Ukrainians mourn their war dead after almost 1,000 days of war - but US move sparks hope
Monday, 18 November 2024 () Barely anyone speaks – there is virtual silence apart from the sounds of passing vehicles and the wind whipping through flags and photographs commemorating the dead in a war that started 1,000 days ago when Russia invaded.
Defence minister Alistair Carns says only the Ukrainians should decide when “they want to move towards peace” and “no one should be putting pressure on them to do so”. This comes after US president-elect Donald Trump’s son Donald Jr seemingly taunted President Zelenskyy with a social media post saying “you're 38 days from losing your allowance". Report by Blairm.
