SALT LAKE CITY — In a rousing speech to a group of governors from all over the nation, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy pleaded for ongoing support for the war with Russia.
"Today I personally want to thank you for your support, the state of Utah, other states, many American hearts and many American communities, all those who do not want and will not allow evil to prevail," he said. To back up that support, the governor signed a memorandum of understanding between Ukraine and Utah, opening economic trade doors between the Kyiv-Oblast region and our state.Standing with Ukraine was also a priority for Colorado Governor Jared Polis, who is taking over leadership of the National Governors Association from Gov. Cox this year.
"I'm very impressed with him," she told FOX 13 News."I think to be able to hear from him in person and hear the things are going on firsthand should make us all stop and think how important freedom is."
