When this column appears, I will have just arrived in Odesa, Ukraine.
I want to see how Ukrainian soldiers and civilians are faring on the ground, as the country wages its counteroffensive against the Russian invaders. I also want to learn how the disappointing NATO summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, has affected Ukrainian morale, and whether new weapons pledged by NATO countries will arrive fast enough to make a difference.
What many Americans don’t realize is that Ukraine has a second enemy beyond Vladimir Putin’s Russia.
