On Wednesday, Zelensky received a standing ovation from the U.S. Congress after a speech he delivered via video link from Kyiv. According to, “Zelensky invoked the memory of America’s darkest days as he pleaded for more military aid.”“Americans, in your great history, you have pages that would allow you to understand Ukrainians, understand us now when we need you, right now. Remember Pearl Harbor, terrible morning of Dec. 7, 1941, when your sky was black from the planes attacking you.
After speaking to Congress, Zelensky connected to audiences in Germany in a speech that, once again, invoked dark times in the country’s past. However, the references were different from those he used for the American audience and specific for the German audience.
