Breitbart reports: Biden became the latest high-profile American to enter Ukraine during its 10-week-old conflict with Russia after travelling in total secrecy, according to an AP report
“I wanted to come on Mother’s Day,” Biden told Zelensky on arrival. “I thought it was important to show the Ukrainian people that this war has to stop and this war has been brutal and that the people of the United States stand with the people of Ukraine.”
The first lady arrived by vehicle to the town of Uzhhorod, about a 10-minute drive from a Slovakian village that borders Ukraine, according to AP.
It is just the latest in a string of diplomatic visits she had made with her husband by her side.
Zelensky thanked Biden for her “courageous act” and said, “We understand what it takes for the U.S. first lady to come here during a war when military actions are taking place every day, where the air sirens are happening every day — even today.”
The school where they met has been turned into transitional housing for Ukrainian migrants from elsewhere in the country.

Her visit made the world of difference, I am sure.
It will to those who understand the symbolisn of the American presidents wife appearing like a blessed symbol of the virgin Mary. You aren’t Catholic so you don’t understand that Ukraine has very powerful Catholic community.
correct, I don’t understand.
More like the fact they are both Nazis, do some research. This isn’t about Catholic solidarity. Jill Biden is a satanist, she’s no more Catholic than Jared Kushner.
Sure No surprise at all
Like the fact FBI just released some memo that becomes headlines accusing the Saudis of orchestrating 9/11 Right after the Prince refused to go along with Bidens sanctions and had a massive disagreement about it too AND just days ago announced his support for Musk and twitter since the Prince owns something like 23 %of twitter stock.
