Two former US Presidents showed their support for Ukraine by laying flowers outside a Ukrainian church in Chicago.
FOX News reported on Friday on two former US Presidents dropping off flowers at a Ukrainian church to show their solidarity for Ukraine.
Former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush visited a Ukrainian church in a show of support as the country enters its fourth week of combating an invasion by Russia.
“America stands in solidarity with the people of Ukraine as they fight for their freedom and their future,” Bush posted on his Instagram page on Friday along with a video of the two presidents laying flowers at Saints Volodymyr & Olha Ukrainian Catholic Church in Chicago.
This was captured in a tweet from Bill Clinton.
Bush shared the following on the crisis per FOX News:
“Russia’s attack on Ukraine constitutes the gravest security crisis on the European continent since World War II. I join the international community in condemning Vladimir Putin’s unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine,” Bush said in a statement in late February. “The American government and people must stand in solidarity with Ukraine and the Ukrainian people as they seek freedom and the right to choose their own future. We cannot tolerate the authoritarian bullying and danger that Putin poses. Ukraine is our friend and democratic ally and deserves our full support during this most difficult time.”
Russia invaded Ukraine in late February.
