Recap guest Teddy Rosenbluth spoke to Marko Rondiak, who attended another demonstration supporting Ukraine in downtown Concord this week. “Every hour matters,” Rondiak said. “We figured it’s important to just get out now and then hopefully we can do something bigger.”

This week, Granite Staters showed their support for Ukraine after Russia’s invasion.
