UWC wishes Merry Christmas to Ukrainians and friends of Ukraine

In Christmas greetings, Paul Grod emphasized the strong ties between the diaspora and Ukraine and recalled the joint task of restoring Ukraine’s territorial integrity and returning Ukrainian political prisoners and hostages.

"Ties between Ukraine and the Ukrainian diaspora remain strong with a mutual commitment to restoring Ukraine’s territorial integrity including the return of Crimea, ending Russia’s aggression, securing the release of all illegally detained political prisoners and hostages, and strengthening Ukraine’s independence and democracy. I firmly believe that together, the Ukrainian people will overcome every challenge that lies ahead on the path to full European and Euro-Atlantic integration, and that peace will once again reign over Ukrainian soil," Grod said.

He also urged to remember in prayers the brave men and women who remain on the front lines defending Ukraine from a foreign aggressor. "May we remember and extend a helping hand to those who continue to suffer the consequences of this unjust war," Grod added.
