Four years ago, Russia launched a full-scale war against Ukraine. From its first hours in 2022, Ukrainian Defence Forces and civilians across thousands of Ukrainian communities showed extraordinary courage and heroism in resisting the enemy.

For many months, Ukrainian defenders have bravely protected Ukraine’s freedom and future, carrying out unique special operations, inflicting massive and irreparable losses on the enemy, and weakening Russia’s military machine.

The war continues for one reason: Russia has not renounced its imperial ambitions. The world must increase pressure on Russia to stop its aggression, crimes, and terror against civilians.

Above all, Ukraine seeks an end to this war – a lasting, sustainable, dignified peace based on solid security guarantees. We call on international partners to take united action in pursuit of this goal.

We thank Ukrainian defenders for protecting our cities and villages, our people, and our future. 

Glory to Ukraine!

Slava Ukraini!
