The head of the British government urged local people to show solidarity with Ukraine on this day and honor the memory of the victims of the war.
Britain declared a nationwide minute of silence on the anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. This was stated by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on the government’s official website.
It will take place at 11:00 local time (13:00 Kiev time), and people from all over the country are once again called upon to stand with the Ukrainians who have been fighting for freedom for a year.
“This national moment will give the people of the UK an opportunity to appreciate the courage of the Ukrainian people and show the UK’s unwavering solidarity with the country,” said Rishi Sunak.
A minute’s silence was held for the people who lost their lives last year, so the UK government urges the public and organizations not to remain indifferent and to honor their memory.
Russia’s war against Ukraine brought a lot of grief, and as the British head of government said, the British pay tribute to the courage and endurance of the Ukrainian people.
“Russia’s unjust attack has once again brought war and destruction to our continent, displacing millions of people and destroying families in Ukraine and Russia. I am incredibly proud of the UK’s response and over the past year the people of the UK have shown true generosity in spirit. and unwavering faith in freedom,” Rishi Sunak summarized.
On February 16, NSDC Secretary Oleksiy Danilov warned that by February 24 Ukraine would be heavily bombed. He believes that the anniversary of the war will be a difficult day for Ukrainians, but you need to remain as calm as possible.
On February 13, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba noted that the West was preparing “big events” for Putin on February 24, and Moscow will remember this day. An important element of the support to be given to Kiev will be the visit of US President Joe Biden to Poland.
