Kyiv Diary: European leaders bear witness to war’s horror

Associated Press  

KYIV, Ukraine — Before the ceremony and the serious meetings about war, the European leaders witnessed the devastation wrought by Russia. “Look at that, ‘Make Europe, not war,’” Macron said, pointing and reading the words out loud in English. “It’s very moving to see that.” The leaders of France, Germany, Italy and Romania had a walking tour of Irpin, a small city which bore the full brunt of Russia’s failed assault on the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, in the first weeks of the war. If the four hadn’t fully grasped the scale of the horrors inflicted by the Russian invasion, ravages like the ones visited across much of Europe during World War I and World War II, then Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Italian Premier Mario Draghi and Romanian President Klaus Iohannis have no excuses now. He called Irpin, which Ukrainian forces retook as Russian troops retreated from around Kyiv, “a heroic town.” “This is where the Ukrainians stopped the Russian army,” he said.
