In Luxembourg, a march and rally were held by the Ukrainian community to mark the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, organized by the LUkraine association. Hundreds of local residents, representatives of the diplomatic corps from several countries, members of the European Parliament, and high-ranking officials from the European Commission attended the rally.
The demonstration was held under the slogan "Justice for Ukraine – Peace for Europe."
"Today, just as at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, we declare: we will fight, we will not surrender. Never. As we did 11 years ago, we continue to fight for our unity, sovereignty, and independence. Not only Ukraine's independence, but Europe's as well," said Natalia Anoshina, Chargé d'Affaires of Ukraine in the Kingdom of Belgium and the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
She emphasized that Europe must finally realize that peace in Ukraine is key to regional and global stability. Mykola Zharov, President of the Ukrainian-Luxembourg association LUkraine, stressed that
"Ukraine wants peace, but it is not for sale."
"Justice is not up for discussion. True peace – lasting peace – cannot be built on betrayal, it cannot be built on fear. It must be built on truth, on justice, on security. Justice for Ukraine equals peace for Europe," he concluded his speech.
