🇱🇻 Latvia’s PM Andris Kulbergs: russia wants to return to the stage again. It wants to normalize itself. And one of the areas where we are allowing this to happen, and where we need to be very strong in Europe, concerns russia returning to sport, to the Olympic and Paralympic Games

Just two weeks ago, the federation also basically said that everything was fine, that there was nothing wrong with russia returning to the world championships — and also returning in music and culture.

We must not allow this, because this is exactly how normalisation happens, and support [for Ukraine] may decrease.

🇱🇹🇺🇦 President of Lithuania Gitanas Nausėda in Kyiv and speaking Ukrainian:

We know full well that Ukraine must win because only your victory will bring peace and calm to all of Europe.

We do not recognise the occupation of Ukrainian territories. We will increase pressure on the aggressor country and its allies. And then, when this terrible war is over, when all Ukrainians are able to return to their daily chores and look up at the sky calmly, Lithuania will be with you. We will help Ukraine rebuild the destroyed schools, hospitals, power stations, rebuild people's lives, heal wounds.

🇺🇦 Today is National Flag of Ukraine Day! Behind these colours are Ukrainian homes, cities, people and their memories. Recently, the flag has become a symbol not just of the State, but of struggle

It was in the hands of those who went to the front, over destroyed cities, in liberated territories and next to those who never returned home.

But behind it is a lot of blood, memory, pain and people who gave everything so that it would remain Ukrainian forever.
