Ukrainian McCain Global Leader Dr. Mariia Levchenko,

we’re going to do today … is to talk about the untold

doing it through grassroots efforts across the entire
Ukrainian community,” said <STRONG>McCain Institute
Executive Director Dr. Evelyn Farkas</STRONG>. “The work
of these citizens should be an inspiration to all of us,
Americans and truly everyone, as they not only fight for
their country, but they fight for democracy for the

humanitarian aid is America’s most effective form of
soft power. But it’s hard work and takes a lot of

think of Senator McCain frequently. He was my hero in

the passage of the Magnitsky sanctions law. The two of
us hold the distinction of being the very first two on

McCain Institute has gathered and rallied grassroots
leaders from around the region to shed light on the

seen in the midst of all this a groundswell of support
for those with no greater hope to see families not
starve and for justice to prevail. We in Congress can
shine a better light on the challenge that these
