Historic. Timely. Brave. I welcomed @POTUS in Kyiv as Russian full-scale aggression approaches its one-year mark. I am thankful to the U.S. for standing with Ukraine and for our strong partnership. We are determined to work together to ensure Ukraine’s victory. pic.twitter.com/EPtH3fLWWD

This is an alpha move that lets the world see an American President standing firm, a clear ally of the brave Ukranian people in a war for their survival against a tyrannical despot.

This photo is stunning — one for history. Beautifully composed, and a perfect symbolic representation of a pivot point in geopolitics. (📸 by Daniel Berehulak / NYT). pic.twitter.com/NbtLxHVccP

Side note: Whatever you think about Biden's age, he does far better than Trump did at managing the physical rigors of international travel.

Biden's visit was middle of the night his time. https://t.co/5Aa96VpIKc
MAGA Republicans are constantly saying the Biden has squandered American deterrence. Note that the US called up the Kremlin a few hours before the visit and said, "Biden's going to be in Kyiv. Understood?"

Dark Fucking Brandon is here to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And he's all out of bubble gum.I asked @AVindman, who served in the Trump administration, if the former president would have made a similar trip to Kyiv. He says Trump “wouldn’t be interested in provoking Putin.” pic.twitter.com/KH6kT97hGc

Imagine the horror if Zelensky had worn a tan suit! He could have at least worn white fur!President’s Day 2023.

Zelenskyy can’t even wear a tie as he greets the President of the United States.
He gladly takes our money in sweat shirts and t-shirts, but Biden is dressed up.
So insulting.
America Last!!!

You mean a whipped dog like this?Byron York would like to complain that "Sleepy Joe" was confident they could deter an attack simply by calling Putin, which is understandable bc every time Trump spoke with Putin he came away looking like a whipped puppy. https://t.co/76vUUz9jQ6

Also note: Given how Trump extorted Zelenskyy--withholding arms AND a visit--in an attempt to remain President, this photo op is a wonderful Presidents Day present to the surly Former.

Fin.Interesting fun fact: Both Biden and Zelensky's capitols were attacked by armies encouraged by Putin.#BidenInUkraine #Ukraine pic.twitter.com/7N1VSXXq1p
