The buildings of the European Commission and the European Council are illuminated in blue and yellow, the colours of the Ukrainian flag. Between them, the street, an EU flag and a Ukrainian flag are visible. It is otherwise dark.

The blue and yellow of Ukraine.
The colours of resistance against imperialism.

On the eve of this grim anniversary, they adorn our building as a symbol of our unflinching support for the Ukrainian people.

Our neighbours, partners, and future EU members.

In Ukraine, about Ukraine, with Ukraine.

On the 3rd anniversary of Russia’s brutal invasion, Europe is in Kyiv.

We are in Kyiv today, because Ukraine is Europe.

In this fight for survival, it is not only the destiny of Ukraine that is at stake.

It’s Europe’s destiny.
