- Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said "Ukraine is alive and kicking" in his address to a joint meeting of Congress on Wednesday night. "It's a great honor for me to be at the U.S. Congress and speak to you and all Americans. Against-against all odds and doom and gloom scenarios … Ukraine is alive and kicking," Zelenskyy said, adding that the "Russian tyranny has lost control over us." His speech to Congress comes as U.S. lawmakers work to pass a $1.7 trillion government spending package that includes $45 billion in assistance for Ukraine.

"We won't have electricity or running water on Christmas, but we don't judge and compare whose life is easier. Your well being is the product and result of your past struggles and victories, we Ukrainians will go through our war with dignity and success"
That line is beautifully said, and both complements the Americans while also saying Ukraine knows what it has to do.
You willfully take the globalist spoon of propaganda. Better look further.
@@nicholashill7929 Better then sending another $600 billion to bail out the bankers
@@trapical 👍
Zelensky isn't a polished politician, but exhibits integrity and courage far greater than most of them. 👍👍💪💪🙏🙏
Yeah the CaiA handlers wrote a great speech
He was hand picked by CIA and corrupt oligarchs like Kolomoisky.
Zelenskiy is TWICE as sincere as Biden, and probably demands a LOT more than just 10%!
You are such a brave soul... Maybe dress up in a Ukraine cheerleader uniform! Give him all your money's
He is panhandler. Like you all
No complaining..only resolve to win. You have to admire that.
No complaints just begs
@@burntupretardporn and I have been drinking vodka but that’s non of your business
@chrispowers5568 And don't whine. Great Presidents to their respected Countries.
Hate to break the news to you Chris but Russia is going to win. With all do respect to Zelenskyy, Biden, and members of congress all this money going to weapons could end homelessness, strengthen our aging infrastructure, and help fund Medicare for all in the United States! It would also save hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions of lives.
They cry for lost loves not material things they owned. So wish Americans could learn this lesson without finding out by losing LOVE💜🙏💜
"We're not asking American Soldiers to fight for us. I assure you Ukrainian Soldiers can operate American tanks and planes themselves". So powerful was this message. Freedom is never truly realized until it's been taken away. God help the Ukrainian people, and shield this President.
So grateful we Americans can help another country defend their democracy!
How about we protect the invasion from happening at OUR southern border!! 11 million people came in since obiden came in. Disgusting!!!!!
Just not Democracy here.
And plus this is not forced democracy, this is a democracy the people of Ukraine wants and are bravely fighting day and day!!

I take freedom for granted. Until Ukraine & trump, or MAGA, I didnt realise how it could be taken away for evil. What RESPECT I have for Pres Zelensky & Ukraine. They cry for lost loves not material losses💜🙏💜
What freedom did Trump take from you?
@@KaiserBlade You weren't paying attention
The Moment near the End when Zelensky gave the Battle Flag from the Heroic Soldiers of Bakhmut was Incredible! The Ukrainians have Lost Many Soldiers but they Fight on with Extraordinary Courage and Tenacity!! Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
This fight is our fight. Everyone.
But they will never beat the bear. Ukrainians just begging for money the U.S. doesn't have. We need Trump more than ever.
❤❤❤❤
The footage of Zelinsky is a fake it's from 8 months ago in Bucha, I'll bet 2 weeks from now Bukhmut will fall,it's all a act.to keep laundering operation around the hill to the pentagon to Raetheon freedom,for who, not the people who speaks Russian in Ukraine this 8 years old war needs to end
Today there was no republican or Democrat inside congress. Today we were Americans supporting zelensky and the Ukrainian people as one.
Wish my money goes ro DPR.
Powerful speech! Of course trolls are out in force but they are just pathetic
---are you one?
Ukrainian bots everywhere
Imagine leaving your country while its at War to personally address the people of the U.S. thanking and asking them for their continued support.
This whole video is just unbelievable to watch
That’s called begging.
@jamesriepe call it what you want. He got a Patriot missile system out of it.
@@4realzthobro332 Not yet.
Former tanker here, as someone who has seen and experienced the war itself, I just would like to say that the Ukrainian people are giving a war for their existence and unfortunately, I personally feel ashamed when I see the laughable numbers of the military equipments an the vehicles sent to "support" Ukraine, especially the air defense systems during these very days. Their cities are being bombed, not only the line of contacts, their cities, their capital, all of'em. Just imagine you are having dinner with your wife, your family, your children and no matter where you are, where you live in the country, all of a sudden cruise missiles start falling to your neighbourhood, your house from miles away.
Ukrainian people are fighting the evil itself. The size of the evil is about a continent, 74% larger than the United States.
The number of the air defense systems sent is very, very low. Please raise your voice and ensure the necessary help is sent to Ukraine.
I love veterans! With all do respect to you, Zelenskyy, Biden, and congress all this money going to weapons could end homelessness, strengthen our aging infrastructure, and help fund Medicare for all in the United States! It would also save hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions of lives.
you want WW3 and to get back in a tank i hear
Wrong Brad Pitt movie.. I think you mean "War Daddy"
100 billion dollars is plenty,we sent 2000 tanks already, Biden said earlier today, so if they are winning what happened to those?
Except we are all fueling a war not peace and Now we spend tax dollars to support that. Ridiculous
Thank you for providing the historical perspective.
If this doesn’t inspire you, it’s just hopeless for you at this point.
God bless America & Ukraine!
Not Ukraine
The Free world stands with Ukraine 🇺🇦
What do you consider the free world? Can you name the countries around the globe that support Ukraine?

Prayers to Ukraine's people & homes
Thoughs and prayer was proven to be ineffective in solving problems... Actions do.
@@glenvillanueva6950 Why not both prayer and action? I believe that positive energy, especially united with the positive energy of others, has a power all its own. Isn't prayer just another name for positive entreaties made to the Creator of All?

I have great admiration for the people of Ukraine and President Zelenskyy who stood up for sovereignty and freedom as he Well stated in behalf of all the People around the world. the Ukrainian people are sacrificing their life for everyones freedom. Let us also not forget Iranian young generation specially women and kids are putting their life in front of bullets without any support from international community again for defending the freedom for all people around the world we got to stand up and recognize them and support them they are another portion of this complex equation they are doing it without anybody's help, we should leave them alone and Ignore them specially Media on leader ship of the free world God bless your Ukrainian , God bless young Iranian specially women and children. Viva the people of both countries.

Zelenskyy and the people of Ukraine are such an inspiration. Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦
Stop giving them money he disrespected our country
He didn't have a tie on that means he doesn't deserve money
Tell how you have been inspired? You going to Ukraine to fight? You going to send all your pay checks to Zelensky?
@@jamesriepe What is wrong with you?
@@TechSnazzy No dude! What’s wrong with you? Zelensky does not walk on water.
So thankful our government representatives have put their politics aside for this important investment in our future. Who’d have thought, another nation’s leader, President Zelenskyy, could unite the Democrats and Republicans. Thank you, Ukrainians, for your sacrifice. Thank you, American leadership, for your support of Ukraine. And thank you, American people, along with our allies, for uniting behind the respect future generations deserve, to inherit a world they might create together democratically.
Sweet words Melissa, but you've been hoodwinked! Russia is going to win.

Fantastic address heard 'round the world by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to our US Congress. He spake of the essential help the US has given for Ukraine's freedom and our European and worldwide democratic allies against Russian mean-spirited terror. When Russia couldn't win on the battlefield it rained missiles and Iran-supplied drone attacks on Ukraine's grid. Millions there are without power, heat or running water.
Now we pray for victory for Ukraine as we enter the Christmas holiday weekend.

Stop drinking the Kool aid
You can pray all you want but the Ukraine will never beat the bear. They just want to use this to fleece the United States out of more money.
Russian Bots are on Overtime 😂😭🤣🇺🇦♥️🇺🇦♥️🇺🇦♥️🇺🇦
Ukraine is embarking on becoming a first world nation. They definitely have what it takes. It’s not just the arms they are provided by NATO.
No they are NOT! Stop spreading your disinformation! They are not a NATO country!
I’m very PROUD to be an American citizen.
@Justin Dickenson The Ukranian people overthrew Yanokovich because he was Putins puppet. Clearly the Ukrainians feel that way as they are doing everything in their power to resist Russian aggression rn
God Bless America! God bless the Ukrainian fighters against tyranny!
I hope putin was watching
I think and perhaps, this is top tranding in news channels and social media all countries in the world 🙏🤒😢😢

Honorable Man pledging for help during the most difficult times for his country.Time for peace talks.
Sadly it is too late for the Russians and peace talks. This war is about to take a major escalation!
So after losing billions, you want to give up and lose another war. Just don't give this beggar any more money.
no peace talks until russia leaves all occupied territories since 2014 , pay the reparation of war and judge the criminals , putin included/
We all love Ukraina and stand with you!💕💕💕
No we don’t
Speak for yourself - Zelensky is a dictator - he's banned all opposition parties and imprisoned opposition leaders. He's sanctioned the Patriarch of the Russian Orthodox Church and attacks the Church in Ukraine. His government is filled with Azov militants who shelled ethnic Russians in Donbass beginning with the US/ CIA orchestrated coup in 2014. Do some research and educate yourself.
Bring back the draft and see how much people love Ukraine
@@jA00110 If you don't believe in protecting democracy wherever it is threatened, then you are a fool. Ukraine is fighting to protect democracy for themselves, but if they don't succeed, democracy throughout Europe is also imperiled.
Glory to heroes! 🇺🇦👍❤️💯🇺🇸💪
glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦
I would be fed up with the clapping too (30:55) let the man finish SMH!
Ukraine has put American money to good use. I wish I could say the same about our government.
@asianguy6174..... Their are bills on Mitch McConnell DESK for over more then 14th Years. You get what U vote for. President Biden and his Administration is doing a great job. Today 12/21/2022. INDEPENDENT by John Bowden matt gaetz and lauren boebert blows through Capital Security and refuse screening before President Zelensky speech. They should have been arrested or and tazed. Let's see what the party of Law and Order do...........
If NATO thinks they can beat the bear, they are about to learn about defeat. The U.S. had shown they can't win wars, lost Vietnam, Afghanistan, etc The Ukrainians are just using incompetent Biden to rob American tax payers.
Ukrainians can be proud of themselves with their war fought against the invading Russians. President Zelenskyy speech in the congress was just extraordinarily.
God Bless Him
The votes of YOUR representatives tell the story that would be democracy
Praise God!
Or help. It's your choice after all.
“…The Russian people will be free when they defeat the Kremlin in their minds…” this man speaks with conviction and it’s amazing how even the sight of him brings waves of respect from around the world, yet he presents as a man, no politician, just a man, defending his beliefs with his life. STAND TALL UKRAINE!!!
wtf ? this dude is responsible for death of hundreds of thousand Ukrainians and he is cheered, when he had 8 years to resolve this through the Minsk international agreement ? The Minsk agreements were a series of international agreements which sought to end the Donbas war fought between armed Russian separatist groups and Armed Forces of Ukraine, but why for 8 years they didnt even address the negotiations ?
Truly Profound. Slava Ukraini!
There’s a bunch of m1 tanks sitting in storage they could put to good use
I love the theatrics. Keep democracy alive forever 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you, President Zelenskyy!
God bless America
our flag, what an honor to be gifted the one that flew over the capitol today.

finally have something we agree on.
11:10: Zelenskyy is not our President
Much better than our president, heck anybody would be better than Obiden.
“One of the best Congressional speeches” by Ukrainian President Zelensky. (Summary)
Dear Americans, all those who value freedom and justice, who cherish it as strongly as Ukrainians, I hope my words of respect and gratitude resonate in each American heart. We have no fear, nor should anyone in the world have fear. Ukrainians gained this victory, and it gave us courage which inspires the entire world. Americans gained this victory. You united the global community to protect freedom and international law. The battle is not only for life, freedom and security of Ukrainians but for any other nation which Russia attempts to conquer. This struggle will define what world our children and grandchildren will live in. Our two nations are allies in this battle. Russians have a significant advantage in artillery, ammunition, missiles and planes. But our defense forces stand just like the brave American soldiers who fought back Hitler’s forces during the Christmas of 1944. We have artillery, yes. Thank you. Is it enough? Honestly, not really. When Russia cannot reach our cities with its artillery, it tries to destroy them with missile attacks. If your Patriot (missiles) stop the Russian terror against our cities, it will let Ukrainian patriots work to defend our freedom. It is just a matter of time when Russia will strike against your other allies if we do not stop them now. Ukraine never asked the American soldiers to fight on our land instead of us. I assure you Ukrainian soldiers can operate American tanks and planes themselves. Financial assistance is critically important. Your money is not charity. It’s an investment in global security and democracy. Together our victory will prove to any potential aggressor that no one can succeed in breaking national borders, no one can commit atrocities and reign over people against their will. The restoration of international legal order is our joint task. It is in your power to help us bring to justice those who started this war. Let’s do it. In two days we will celebrate Christmas, maybe candlelit because there will not be electricity, heat or running water because of Russian attacks. Your well-being is the product of your national security; the result of your struggle for independence and your many victories. We will also go through our war of independence and freedom with dignity and success. We’ll celebrate Christmas. If there is no electricity, the light of our faith in ourselves will not be put out. If Russian missiles attack us, we’ll do our best to protect ourselves. We will go to bomb shelters on Christmas Eve, and we will still sit down at the holiday table and cheer up each other because we know that all of us wish the same: Victory. With you we built a strong Ukraine with strong people, a strong army, and strong institutions.. And together with you, we’ll put in their place everyone who will defy freedom. Now, on this special Christmastime, I want to thank all of you, every American family that cherishes the warmth of its home and wishes the same warmth to other people. So much in the world depends on you. We stand, we fight and we will win because we are united - Ukraine, America and the entire free world. Thank you and may God protect our brave troops and citizens, and may God forever bless the United States of America. Merry Christmas and a happy, victorious New Year.
SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦 💙
Why do need to hear this news it’s getting old
President Of Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
My thoughts, prayers and love are with Ukraine 🇺🇦 I am in awe of him.
what fake comments are these
Kamilla sitting back there looking stupid thinking ' I'm making history.
Who's really looking stupid here?
Like most Americans, I care more about Ukraine's border than our own.
Honestly, Ukraine should've joined Nato when Russia first annexed Crimea. But since Ukraine applied now, it's gonna have to wait because of Sweden and Finland.
Also at this point, Russia's only European allies are Belarus and Serbia.
People who say “Don’t help Ukraine” would say not to help Stalin fight against Hitler
Special day
No matter what people think this is up to Congress. I feel bad to Ukrainian Soldiers and its people. What is Congress is going to do?
