Most people aren’t aware that Vladimir Putin was actually the first world leader to call George W. Bush after the 9/11 attacks.

Russia didn’t stop at words,they gifted the US a massive 100-foot, 175-ton monument called the Tear Drop Memorial.
This towering bronze structure, featuring a suspended steel teardrop, was Russia’s tribute to the victims of 9/11.

At its base are the names of XXXXX people who died in New York, Washington D.C. and Pennsylvania.

It stands quietly in Harbor View Park, New Jersey, directly facing the New York City skyline.

So why is it so unknown?

Because Western mainstream media largely ignores it.
Recognizing a heartfelt gesture from Russia doesn’t align with their narrative.
