Vice President Harris
Vice President Kamala Harris spoke at 11:30 am today in Durham on the situation in Ukraine:
“As we all know, the eyes of the world are on the brave people of Ukraine. They are fighting. They are fighting not just to defend their homes and their families but to defend their worth and their freedom, their sovereignty…we stand with the people of Ukraine and we stand with our partners and our allies on the side of knowing that we must always be vigilant in defending the ideals that we hold dear… With that, we all, I know, express our thoughts and prayers and well wishes to the people of Ukraine.”
The Ukrainian flag that will be raised was sewn by Bailey’s Glen resident Peggy Barton.

Thank you Peggy. My grandfather, our family matriach, hailed from Kiev, Ukraine. I wish I knew earlier as I would have stood with you.
Hi Andrew,
It was my honor and pleasure to make the flag to fly for Ukraine at Bailey’s Glen. This is such a serious situation and I am very concerned how it may progress. My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Ukraine.
Thank you. My dad and his family fled the Ukraine in the first quarter of the last century. All his relatives were prosecuted by Russians, Cossacks, Nazis, and others. The Ukraine deserves to win this fight and we need to give them all the support they need, and our government needs to understand this.
