The National Constitution Center in Philadelphia plans to award the Liberty Medal to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy next month for his "heroic defense of liberty in the face of Russian tyranny."
It is difficult to imagine anyone more deserving of this honor. Zelenskyy has emerged as a Winston Churchill of our time, showing that true leadership is about an unfaltering commitment to democracy and independence in the face of violence and authoritarianism.
The world was reminded of that as Russia ramped up its reckless and inhuman bombing of civilian targets across Ukraine this week.
