The people of Ukraine have reason to be proud that there are three leaders in their country, political novices, people who had no great experience of leadership, who when this monstrous war began, started by the evil Putin regime, Putin quite confidently expected that the leaders would run away.
The US president called Ukraine’s leader a “dictator” and appeared to accuse Ukraine of starting the war as his officials met Russian officials to discuss ending the conflict.
Around 112,000 Ukrainians have arrived in Ireland since the war broke out in February 2022, with an estimated quarter of those thought to have since left Ireland.
The crowd held signs criticising Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump as demonstrators thanked Ireland for hosting thousands of Ukrainian refugees.
Maria Myrhorodska, from the Donetsk region, said she had been living in different cities in Ukraine for 10 years, and she has been in Ireland for the past three years.
