On November 7-9, 2023, photos taken by American photographer Patrick Patterson were exhibited in the central rotunda hall of one of the buildings of the U.S. Capitol. Patterson, who spent a year in Ukraine, documented on camera the consequences of Russian war crimes. During the exhibition at the Capitol, Patterson showed senators and congressmen photos from the de-occupied Kharkiv region, in particular, and described the plight of Ukrainians, whose lives were destroyed by the war. The exhibition was sponsored by U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, while the Ukrainian Studies Fund provided technical support in preparing the photographs for display.
