Storyline:
Dozens of the Ukrainian community and members of American human rights organizations held a vigil in front of the White House standing in solidarity with the people of Ukraine. Protesters called for an end to the war on Ukraine, an immediate ceasefire, and the stop of targeting civilians. The participants held banners reading “Hands off Ukraine”, “No missiles should fly over children’s heads”, “Putin war criminal” and “Close the sky over Ukraine.”

” I am here to support the people of Ukraine. We want peace. We want Russia out of Ukraine. It is a sovereign democratic country. We do not want war. We are so proud of the Ukrainian people and the way they are standing up to much more powerful aggression. This aggression that Russia has been going on for many years. Since 2014 they illegally invaded Crimea and began a war in Donbas eastern Ukraine. The world was not paying attention, now finally the world has woken up to the attack of this Russian criminal Putin he needs to be stopped.”
