Poltava hosts a mobile exposition dedicated to EU assistance

28/02/2023

In various ways, the EU supported budget expenditures, restoration of damaged infrastructure, weapons and ammunition for the Armed Forces, social payments, and more.

A series of videos released in February as part of the “Together, We Are Europe” communication campaign shows the EU’s support for the state’s and business’ resilience in wartime, humanitarian and other aid to Ukrainians, and assistance in strengthening the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Since August last year, the campaign has been running to inform Ukrainians about the scope of EU assistance and make them confident in its continued support.

The European Union will help Ukraine for as long as it takes. Our commitment to a free and democratic Ukraine has never been stronger.” These words by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, cited from one of the videos, best describe the EU’s approach.

In February, as part of the campaign, Dnipro hosted a mobile exposition of unique artworks created by Ukrainian illustrators about the EU’s assistance to Ukraine and Ukrainians during the war.

Dnipro is the easternmost city in our exposition. It is a frontline city fighting Russian terrorism, a city that recently had to face another war crime against civilians,” said Ambassador Matti Maasikas, Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine, recalling the barbaric missile attack on a high-rise building in January. “We are honored to have our exposition there, and we hope it will bring some joy and hope to the people of Dnipro.”

Dnipro was supposed to be the last city on the exposition’s map. However, given the high interest of visitors, the exposition extended its tour and arrived to Poltava on the 27th of February. Peremoha Culture and Recreation Park hosts it.

Launched in August in Kyiv, the exposition visited Lviv, Rivne, Khmelnytskyi, Uzhhorod, Odesa, and Dnipro.
