This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.

We know what historians will record: U.S. and EU provided aid to Ukraine and imposed sanctions on Russia that were *always* too little and too late.
There are, however, very solid grounds for optimism. Ukrainian determination & remarkable innovation continue to hold off much larger Russian forces.
