Despite growing Russian, US pressure, world rallies in support of Ukraine

Yahoo24-02-2025
Three years into Russia's all-out war, Ukraine is under increasing pressure from Russia on the battlefield and the U.S. in high cabinets.
Russian troops have been gaining ground around Pokrovsk in Ukraine's Donetsk Oblast, while U.S. President Donald Trump has made increasingly hostile comments against President Volodymyr Zelensky in an attempt to force Ukraine to sign a deal that it doesn't want.
But in these fights, Ukraine doesn't stand alone.
On the days nearing the third anniversary, thousands of people around the world have taken to the streets their desire to show support for Ukraine and its fight for freedom.
Ukrainian World Congress (UWC) told Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty on Feb. 24 that the demonstrations have been held in 78 countries, covering over 600 cities.
Demonstrations were held in the EU, the U.S., Canada, as well as South Africa, Uruguay, Vietnam, Guatemala, Peru, Jordan, Indonesia, and Japan.
