Pro-Ukraine Rally To Be Held In Livingston Saturday

LIVINGSTON, NJ — The Ukranian American Cultural Center of New Jersey, based in Whippany, will hold a rally with speeches on Saturday afternoon in Livingston, to support the Ukraine after the Russian invasion.

"Please come out and show your support for the Ukraine," said the post.

The rally and speeches will start at 2:15 p.m. at the Gazebo, across South Livingston Avenue from Livingston Town Hall. Drivers can enter at 357 South Livingston Ave., and there are public parking lots with "plenty" of parking, noted organizers.

The center had posted on Wednesday, "Ukraine giving up its nuclear arsenal (Budapest Memorandum) made the world safer for all Americans. So each American received something extremely valuable from Ukraine, i.e. a safer place to live in."

Ukranian authorities said at least 70 of their soldiers were killed Tuesday in a Russian rocket attack.
