She might be still young to understand geopolitics, power and diplomacy, but her powerful message resonates with the kind of world we want: peaceful. ¡°I want peace on Earth, not pieces of Earth,¡± said Lily. ¡°We are brothers and sisters,¡± she added.
¡°Stop war,¡± she says at the end of the video.
The caption of the video read, ¡°We are praying for Ukraine and all of the innocent lives that are affected¡±. The clip was posted on Instagram by a page called Brittany and Lily and has over 1.5 million views and more than 1.2 lakh likes.
Many people reacted to the little girl¡¯s adorable yet meaningful message and praised her in the comments section. ¡°Tell them, Lily! I vote Lily for President. She just gets it!! World PEACE!¡± one user commented. "That's the message our world needs,' another user commented.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainians are standing tall as Russia continues its advances towards Kyiv. The civilians are taking up arms to defend their country.
A young couple, who were due to get married later this year pulled the date early, and have now joined the Ukrainian defence forces. 21-year-old Yaryna and 24-year Sviatoslav were all set to get hitched in May but after Russian President Vladimir Putin decided to invade their country, they changed their plans and joined the army. They tied the knot in a monastery in Kyiv and were later spotted armed with AK-47s.
Yarina and Sviatoslav decided to move their wedding forward and got married on the day Russia invaded their country. 24h later, the young Ukrainian couple picked up their government issued weapons to fight the invaders. #UkraineUnderAttack #Ukraine #UkraineRussia pic.twitter.com/DbOf2uRj8e

Our prayers are with the people of Ukraine.
