I’ve been back in Arlington for close to ten hours.

Several months ago, I mailed a check, payable to the Ministry of Defense, to a bank in Kyiv; it didn’t get cashed. A few days ago, I received an email from someone at the Ukrainian bank, saying that courier services were not operating in Ukraine, so it would take two months process the check (he spelled it “cheque” in the British fashion), and it would be best if I instead did a bank transfer to a Ukrainian account at J.P. Morgan Chase. I replied to his email, saying that according to my recollection, when I had tried calling Chase, no one had been able to tell me how to perform the bank transfer, and that was why I had physically mailed the cheque to Kyiv.

In conclusion, I wrote that it might be best for him to process the cheque, even if doing so via the regular mail might take two months.

So I don’t have much in the way of advice to others who sympathize with Ukraine on how best to contribute directly to the country’s national defense. There are non-profits aiding Ukraine and Ukrainian refugees.

Had a link to send money "to aid Ukraine." Doubt it went directly to Min Defense. If you want, I could try to find the link.
