Fear grows in Washington D.C. as former President Donald Trump orders the National Guard to carry weapons in the nationâs capital.

On Ukraineâs 2025 Independence Day, President Volodymyr Zelensky made a bold fashion statement that went beyond clothingâit was pure symbolism. Just six days after wearing a formal black suit at the White House under reported pressure from Donald Trumpâs team, Zelensky returned home and ditched the Western formality for a striking black vyshyvanka, Ukraineâs traditional embroidered shirt. The black fabric carried deep meaning: mourning the thousands lost in war while showcasing resilience and national pride. For Ukrainians, the vyshyvanka is more than an outfitâitâs a symbol of cultural survival. Zelenskyâs decision to abandon suits âtooâ for his own nationâs day underscored his defiance of external expectations and his loyalty to Ukrainian traditions. It was not just attire, but wartime messaging: Ukraineâs spirit cannot be tailored to foreign demands.
