UKRAINE

The Parliament and Government buildings in Bucharest were on Tuesday lit blue and yellow to mark the Ukrainian Flag Day and the Ukrainian Independence Day. Romanian authorities are thus reasserting their solidarity, joining initiatives designed to boost international support for this country. „Romania has taken a firm position together with Ukraine and against the unprovoked, illegal and irrational military aggression launched by Russia. Our solidarity with Ukraine is owed not just to geographical proximity, but to democratic values and principles underlying the resistance of our Ukrainian neighbors„, Prime Minister Nicolae Ciucă said in a press release. The Romanian official pointed out Romania will continue to support Ukraine and provide a home to people who are forced to flee their homeland due to the war.
