As the battle rages in Ukraine, work continues uninterrupted at the Ukrainian Consulate in San Francisco, including efforts to help potential refugees and those looking for a way to get to the front lines.
He said the last few days have been a flurry of meetings and phone calls, including Friday morning's Zoom meeting with consuls general from other European Union countries like France.
The Ukrainian government is asking allied governments for three things, cut Russia out of the swift, international banking system, send more military equipment, like air defense systems, and humanitarian aid. At the San Francisco consulate, they're also getting calls about where private citizens can send aid.
And as soon as images of Russian troops invading Ukraine began hitting the airwaves, they also started getting other kinds of calls. “Saying they want to go to Ukraine and help physically, I mean help by fighting,” said Kushneruk. “And those are very rarely Ukrainians, those are American people.”Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has taken to social media calling on anyone with combat experience to join the fight. “We would like to get military support from the NATO, like by regular troops. But if that's not working, let's start by individuals at least,” said Kushneruk.
