Zelenskyy and Thunberg Commit to Addressing Environmental Damage From Russian Invasion

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with Greta Thunberg and European officials to form an environmental working group addressing ecological damage from Russia's war in Ukraine.
The working group aims to evaluate environmental damage, hold Russia accountable, and restore Ukraine's ecology following fighting that has caused casualties and damage across Ukraine.
Thunberg criticized the global reaction to environmental destruction in Ukraine, including the collapse of the Nova Kakhovka dam, calling it "ecocide."
Ukraine is investigating over 200 war crimes against the environment and 15 cases of ecocide, and is calling for international action against Russia's environmental war crimes.
Former U.S. Vice President Mike Pence visited Kyiv and expressed support for Ukraine, pledging aid despite criticism from some Republicans.
