We are all united in the understanding that culture and art are very necessary and important. It's a voice. Where Ukraine is not heard, where not everyone understands us, it is the voice of art, culture, painting, cinema - everything that inspires us all within the country, and what is heard today abroad - has a great influence. Thank you Ukrainian artists for everything you do: for spreading the truth abroad about what is happening in our country, for supporting the spirit of Ukrainians within the country.
