Blinken sits in with Ukrainian bar band for ‘Rockin†in the Free Worldâ€

Published

KYIV — Neil Young songs arenâ€t typically used as tools of diplomacy. Tuesday night in wartime Ukraineâ€s capital, not long before curfew, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken deployed a left-handed guitar in the service of supporting Kyiv in its fight against Russia.

Before Blinken became the top American diplomat, he was a serious rock guitarist — and along with a Ukrainian band, he played “Rockin†in the Free World,� a 1989 song by Young, the Canadian American musician, for a packed basement music club.
