Dit gaat over meer dan Oekraïne. Concessies aan dit front schept een precedent voor de toekomst.

President Trump was met by silence as he began his Quantico address, a contrast from the rousing applause he expects at his speeches.
“I’ve never walked into a room so silent before,” Trump said. “If you want to applaud, you applaud.” wapo.st/4gSqzmS

The latest video shows the roof of another building on fire.
At least 5 people can be seen with injuries after the attack on the city. Some with what looks like 'only' lacerations, but one man has been badly wounded.
