Wigilii. Czuc przyspieszenie w powietrzu. Robi sie goraco. "Lamia mi reke i miazdza mi noge!" - POSEL RP GRZEGORZ BRAUN. WLODZIMIERZ ZELENSKI CHUCHILLEM XXI WIEKU. At a time of grave consequence, a wartime leader crossed the Atlantic to arrive at a White House decked in holiday decor to consult with the American president about a war in Europe. The moment was Dec. 22, 1941, as British Prime Minister Winston Churchill landed near Washington to meet with Presidnt Franklin D. Roosevelt just weeks after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Almost 81 years later, to the day, the pageantry of that trip was echoed on Wednesday as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy touched down at Joint Base Andrews just outside the capital for a surprise visit with President Joe Biden and an address to Congress (Chris Megerian, "Zelenskyy follows in Churchill's foodstep", NATIONAL POST, Thursday, December 22, 2022). "You can kill a man but you can't kill an idea." - SOPHOCLES.
