Chief rabbi of Ukraine appeals to Trump in song (video)

My message to the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, is to help Ukraine achieve a just and lasting peace, wrote Azman.

You are the one; the world is watching you with every step, with everything you do. Don't let the lines of right and wrong grow thin. The light will always rise; the dark won't win. Donald Trump, it's time to fight in the name of light, the song says.

The video is accompanied by footage of Russian strikes on Ukraine and their devastating consequences, including the attack on Kyiv on April 24, which killed 12 people and injured nearly a hundred others.

They always lie, they always hide the blade. The throne of Tsar is built on fear and hate. They don't want peace, they only want blood and fire. It is time to crush the evil empire, adds the Chief Rabbi of Ukraine in the song.
