Newly elected President Macron of France attended a victory celebration to commemorate the defeat of the Nazis in 1945. He reminded the country that the effort has meaning to this day and will never be forgotten. While in Moskva, the 5'4" dictator helped celebrate the same victory, Russyan-style: meaning troops were on parade, a few tanks rolled by followed by some mechanized launchers of a sort. That celebration comes as Vlad tells more lies about Ukraine than the media can count. Maybe we will celebrate again soon. Maybe not.
Down south, near Sochi(in Ukraine), President Zelensky vowed to continue the fight against the invaders until they , too, can celebrate another victory over invaders(aka Russyans). The Ukrainian citizens vowed to continue the fight against their former masters from the north, around the Steppes. As the war rages on, so the locals continue to fight with the aid of the West. This is somewhat reminiscent of the WW II fight when Uncle Joe(Stalin) refused to believe that Adolf HItler would turn against him. And when Hitler did, Stalin begged Roosevelt for help. Never mind that Stalin was a stone cold supporter of the very same Nazis, but now it was his home town that was threatened. "Help", he cried out to Washington. And the response was "yes, we will help". So, the convoys braved the U-boats of the Nazis in the North Atlantic as they crawled past Greenland, Iceland, and Norway to arrive in the port of Murmansk to deliver the goods. That was a long time ago, but relevant, surely. How soon they forget.
