‘United:' Truck Convoy in Support of Ukraine Arrives in Chicago
"Semi drivers joined in a truck convoy Saturday from suburban East
Dundee to Chicago's Buckingham Fountain to show solidarity with Ukraine
and demand more actions are taken to counter Russian aggression.
Dozens of drivers took part in the approximately 40-mile long trek with
some demonstrating support by displaying Ukrainian flags.
Organizers told NBC 5 they wanted to send a message that people stand
with Ukraine and urged western leaders, including President Joe Biden,
to do whatever they can to help as Russian troops advance on the country."
