Ukraine's Zelenskyy to address full US Congress

WASHINGTON: Ukraine's president will deliver a virtual address to the United States Congress on Wednesday (March 16). The appeal comes with both sides launching a fresh round of talks amid deadly air strikes in the capital Kyiv, nearly three weeks after Russia's President Vladimir Putin ordered the attack. "We look forward to the privilege of welcoming President (Volodymyr) Zelenskyy's address to the House and Senate and to convey our support to the people of Ukraine as they bravely defend democracy," House leader Nancy Pelosi and her Senate counterpart Chuck Schumer said in a joint letter to lawmakers. Speaker of the Canadian House of Commons Anthony Rota said that Zelenskyy would also address lawmakers in Ottawa on Tuesday.
Ukraine President Volodmyr Zelenskyy will speak directly to both houses of Congress and the American people tomorrow (I'm assuming this will be widely televised).
Kyiv time is 6 hours ahead of Washington time. I hope Zelenskyy's interpreter is up to this task and includes his nuance.
