Ukrainians must rely on themselves for support

A recent meeting in the White House between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and U.S. leaders turned contentious. President Donald Trump accused Zelensky of "gambling with World War Three," while Vice President JD Vance called him "disrespectful." Ukrainian volunteer Dariia Voloshyna expressed pride in Zelensky's defense of Ukraine during the exchange. She stated that Ukrainians now realize they must rely on themselves amid ongoing conflict, rather than expecting significant support from the U.S. Voloshyna, who has experienced the war firsthand, highlighted the normalization of violence in Ukraine. She now focuses on volunteering and web design, emphasizing the importance of appreciating life’s small moments amid the ongoing crisis.
