The countdown of our modern history. The struggle every day.

For hundreds of years they tried to convince us that these concepts are not for us. But they are in our blood.

We cannot be intimidated – we have survived bans, Holodomors, repressions, wars. You cannot pressure Ukrainians – there will be resistance.

Today our voice is heard in every country in Europe, all over the world. And this is not a manifestation of expansion – this is a declaration that we exist. The largest country in Europe, talented people, discoveries, achievements, industries, champions, artists, families, students, mothers, children – we exist. And the enemy wants to destroy this.

This illumination of the Embassy building, together with the exhibition dedicated to the events on the Maidan, is also our voice, our statement. We remember everyone who gave their lives for our freedom.

Glory to Ukraine!
