"His own presence is a reminder of how dangerous it is to depreciate the power of the idea of ​​Ukraine," said Senator Chris Murphy, who was present at Zelensky's speech before Congress.

According to the legislator, Ukraine "had to paste for several days", and Zelensky himself "had to die, once remained in Kiev", but the appearance of Zelensky in Washington almost a year after the start of the full -scale invasion of the Russian Federation "sent a really powerful signal" the United States.
