Aprotest was held outside the Seattle Center on Saturday, as demonstrators rallied against Russia’s ongoing aggression toward Ukraine.
The demonstration was organized by the Ukrainian Association of Washington State. Liliya Kovalenko, the organization’s president, talked to KIRO 7?s Graham Johnson the day before the protest, sharing her concerns regarding a Russian invasion of Ukraine.
“They’re not there only for practicing,” Kovalenko said on Friday. “They are there for invasion and they are ready.”
Kovalenko and about 100 others gathered by the Space Needle on Saturday. Protestors held signs, listened to speeches, and gathered in an effort to show support for both Ukraine and Seattle’s Ukrainian community.
