Ukrainians have changed the flow of history several times with their brave and creative spirit and desire for democracy for over 1,000 years since the era of Kyivan Rus, a powerful state of the Middle Ages.
Although it had to spend a long time trying to regain its history, Ukraine finally achieved its independence in 1991 and chose to follow the path to become a modern and dynamic country in Europe.
The country's struggle for freedom continues today to get away from the colonialism of Russia. On the contrary, Ukrainian arts are flourishing and it has a vibrant civic society as well as enriched media environment.

Although the country was founded after the massacre, Ukraine provides a diverse and vivid combination of culture, nationality, tradition, and achievements, contributing to creating a world of multiple cultures and tolerance.
The Ukraine War which began with the invasion of Russia in February, 2022, put everything at risk. Ukrainian cities are destroyed, people are killed or expelled. Accordingly, the world is losing parts of priceless European culture.

For Ukrainians, it is important that other countries recognize this. There is an old civilization behind the face of this young independent state that is currently in crisis.
To us, returning to our roots means awakening to responsibility that lasted for 1,000 years, not the 31-year modern history.

And we are ready to fight for that.
