President Joe Biden has nearly run out of funds to continue sending highly sought-after U.S. military aid to Ukraine, and partisanship in Congress threatens to hold up swift passage of a bill for additional assistance.

A decade ago, war broke out between Russia and Georgia in the separatist regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, with each side accusing the other of starting the hostilities. The short war cost hundreds of lives, displaced tens of thousands, and left both territories in a state of frozen conflict.

Latvian independence was serendipitous Independence for the Republic of Latvia was a serendipitous result of historic circumstances. Latvia would not have declared independence if Germany and Russia had not lost World War I and had not had revolutions, if civil war had not broken out in Russia, and if the Entente had not declared the right of nations to self-determination. The idea of Latvian independence did not just appear on 18 November 1918 or even 17 November, but much earlier. Indeed, the idea of an independent Latvia was not widespread among the inhabitants of Latvia (ethnic Latvians included) until 1917, but the situation began to change dramatically in the summer of 1917. After a series of events, including the fall of Riga to the Germans...

On October 23, 1956, Hungary rose up against communist rule. It was the first armed revolution against an Eastern Bloc regime.

“It took me a while to realize when I wen t to the baby houses that they only show you all the healthy ones. Then there are the rooms where the others are just lying there. They're all dying, lying on their backs, staring at the ceiling, generally fed on their backs. I've seen them putting the bottle of boiling hot food into children's mouths. It must be burning, but they're too hungry and just swallow it.” - Sarah Philips, long-time orphanage volunteer “When I was little, Svetlana Petrovna put my head in

PAVLO TYCHYNA (1891-1967), Ukrainian poet. His first collection of poetry Clarinets of the Sun (1918) brought him instant recognition as the major Ukrainian poet of his time. His second collection The Plow confirmed Tychyna's position in Ukrainian culture. After the publication of his third collection Instead of Sonnets or Octaves he suffered immediate repercussions and never republished or even mentioned that book again. From 1920 to 1940 Tychyna worked on a monumental epic he called Skovoroda, a
