Blessed..

 

In 2022, the Biden administration and the U.S. Congress have directed nearly $50 billion in assistance to Ukraine, which includes humanitarian, financial, and military support, according to the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a German research institute. 
Corruption is an issue in Ukrainian society. Since regaining independence, Ukraine has faced a series of politicians, criminal bosses, and oligarchs who used corruption of police, political parties, and industry to gain power.
On the other hand...Speaking to Crux, Riad Sargi, executive director of Caritas Syria, said international sanctions and the United States’ Caesar Act “really badly affect life in Syria.”  “In the end, the [victim] of the sanctions is not the richest people, but the poorest people, the children. They survive under abnormal conditions, without education, without medications, without anything, and without food sometimes,” he said.
Caritas is a global federation of 162 Catholic charitable organizations operating in 200 countries around the world.  
What does that say about our Human conscience?
