I would like to thank you for your true love to the native land, which you reflected in your masterpieces. With such young talented people Ukraine has a great future ahead”, – she said at the award ceremony.
The subject of the “For you, Ukraine!” contest was children’s answer to the question: what am I doing or what I will be able to do for Ukraine in the future, when I acquire some knowledge or profession? Over a thousand of children presented their works with their vision of Ukraine’s future.
The award ceremony took place at the opening of the Third International Congress “Diaspora as the factor of Ukraine’s firm establishment in the international community: modern dimension, projection into the future”.
On June 23-24, Mrs. Yatsenyuk will also participate in the Congress Workshops entitled “Newest phenomenon of consolidation of Ukrainians in the world in the context of the Eastern diaspora and new migration wave”.
