Summary
Days before the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion, Ukrainians find unity threatened not just by Russia but also shifting U.S. support.
Donald Trump’s false labeling of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a “dictator” has provoked fierce backlash, even from Zelenskyy’s critics, who now rally around him.
With ongoing Russian attacks and Ukrainian forces stretched thin, Trump’s suggestion of a swift end to hostilities raises fears of concessions favoring Russia.
Officials argue that elections amid war would undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty. Many vow to continue resisting, regardless of major foreign policy changes.
Also awe as in he’s awful.
Fun fact, “awful” comes from “awe-ful”, that is, something that fills you with awe. Not necessarily something good or bad, just really big. In older books you see it used in that sense, referring to something like a loud noise, explosion, or a religious experience like the appearance of an angel.
Yup! Similar thing as with “awful / awesome” happened with “terrible / terrific”.
Horrible / horrific is still both bad though.
And “terrific” comes from “terrify.”
