Time Is Running Out for Ukraine

In early March 2022, I spent two weeks hiding in a basement in my village near Kyiv as Russian soldiers prowled outside. In the months that followed, knowledge of Russia’s war crimes in Ukraine spread rapidly across the world. I could not believe that the international community would tolerate such atrocities and fail to intervene. I never imagined that, two years later, I would be in Washington, D.C., having to implore members of the U.S. Congress not to betray Ukraine.
