ambassador oksana markarova is a good sign because very often it is a tradition when the president speakst something , a person who personifies this situation, this country, this history. she stands up and is applauded by the audience. to expect that the president will talk about ukraine so that the hand looks, we need to hear yes , please , yes, please. on the other hand, let's talk directly about president joe biden's speech before the congress and we know that the odious republican congresswoman mayor jerry taylor green decided to congratulate the president with this speech with a white ball directly in why is the essence of this performance clear to you? is it just drawing attention to yourself in this way, a hint to knock down the growth, greetings with a speech before the congress , what is it about? a person would not do it, there is one who has already said that i will not come, this is also a public sign, you know , to draw attention to it, so in the grand scheme of things, politically, it does not say anything. well, what about china this is preliminary information from the whit

the first lady's special box , when only 27 guests can be invited, the ambassador of ukraine, oksana markarovated, she was sitting next to nancy polosi's husband, there was a bonus somewhere nearby youtube was next to her, almost three chairs away from her, was the first lady, and when the president addressed her , you will see it now on the footage, and the entire hall stood up, absolutely everyone, both democrats and republicans , when biden spoke, there were certain moments when the republicans did not show up, but there was a question about ukraine. we just saw bipartisan support. and what is more important , look at the president. we expected him to formulate a very important message regarding the course regarding ukraine in relation to this war . for example, theoretically, if he said and hinted that we should think about some compromises about some kind of peace treaty, then this would indicate that this is the course of the american administration, if you, the president , told the contrary, the ukrainians are holding on, we are with you, we are with you until the end, this has proven t

not for nothing that ukraine is called the 51st state of the united states by its ambassador oksana markarovain the forefront of biden's address to congress, the president once again declares that he will support kiev as much as necessary we united nato we created a global coalition putin's invasion of ukraine is a test for the ages. a test for america for the whole world to listen to biden in his country full order. he talks about how he coped with inflation and solved the crisis with migrants. on the southern borders, he lied so much that he accused the republicans of cutting social programs, some republicans want to do away with social security. liar, easy to read, cry one of the most radical representatives of the republican party marjorie-tayler green intelligently wrapped the wall street journal journalists of the newspaper write about the contradiction in biden's appeal, if biden is such a success. why are americans unhappy about more than 70% of us residents believe that with biden the country is moving in the wrong direction to the word of their speech, biden, recited in the capitol,

first lady has invited 26 guests, nancy pelosi and the family of tyre nichols, and bono and oksana markarova and brandon tsay. >> the administration says this is an important time for the president to talk about the progress of the administrations whether it is the economy or covid and they see it as a real turning point, but it is not a status check on where the country is standing right now from the president's perspective, but it is also going to be an incredibly important political speech for this president, because we expect it to serve as a preview and dry run for re-election announcement that we expect to come in the coming weeks. as we expect him to look back on the last two year, we expect him to paint the affirmative vision and picture of what he wants to get done in the next two year, but keep in mind there is somebody sitting behind him for the first time in this setting, and that is of course house speaker kevin mccarthy and just a reminder all throughout the night that the president now confronts a newly divided congress, and we saw mccarthy giving a prebuttal of sorts of some

it in order to counteract in moscow on with these words, biden turned to the word of ukraine oksana markarova, who was brought to congress as a prop to loosen the entire american nation, which, according to john , is striving for greater freedom and greater peace , not only in europe but everywhere. in general , another blah blah blah to endless applause, representatives of the us democratic party addressed the biden to the republicans. the quote will end with waru for the sake of squabbling and help him make america again. the great truth of the canoe's speech at the republican was greeted with whistling and displeased shouts. member of the house representative from the republicans came and hinson. she even shouted a word that sounded like a liar. writes the wall street journal however, the most discussed news in the united states was not biden's speech itself, but the behavior of his wife, look, while the old man from the stomach reported to congress urgently important information that ukraine is a test, probably beyond his years. the nimble wife joined in hot kisses with kamala's husband,

confrontations with moscow on these words, biden turned to the ambassador of ukraine oksana markarovas also brought to congress as a prop to demote the american nation, which , according to joe, is striving for greater freedom and greater peace, not only in europe but everywhere. in general, another blah blah blah to the endless applause of the representatives of the democratic party, biden addressed and called on the republicans to finish their quote swara. for the sake of squabbling to help him make america great again biden's true republican speech met with whist and dissatisfied exclamations. in particular, the congresswoman of the majors, taylor creen, screamed a liar all over the hall. by the way, she brought a large white balloon with her to congress. she herself dressed in all white, that is, a clear hint of the recent scandal with the chinese air meteorological umbrella. thanks, thanks. i spoke from this hall a year ago , just a few days after vladimir putin unleashed a brutal war against ukraine a murderous attack that evokes images of the death and destruction that europe s
