  1. France held its grounds whole 43 days! 43 days, guys! Legendary!
    You should tell that old dude about Azov and Bandera..

  2. One of the greatest, of the greatest generation, couldn't have taken his hat off faster and kissed President Zelenskyy's hand.
    More respect in this interaction than I've seen in years.
    I'm dead. God bless both of these men.

  3. Why this hero embraced the neo nazi Zelenskyy is beyond me.. PS.. Is there nowhere in Ukraine that sells suits… Man looks like he's going to work..

  4. Love what the older generation have done to lead and encourage this generation into the battle against an evil that has plagued European freedom and democratic values for far too long

  5. Honestly this is why Zelenskyy is a real one. He knew that he wasn't worthy of the kind gesture but respected and honoured the veteran with affection.
