If your country were invaded, violated by force.. Would you stand by, or stand up? Sovereignty, territorial integrity & accountability are universal principles that protect all states.
A Just and lasting peace in Ukraine is critical to reaffirm these principles.
#StandWithUkraine
It has been four years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
In solidarity with the Ukrainian people, we are raising the Ukrainian flag alongside the flag of the European Union in front of the EEAS headquarters. This is the first time a flag is raised here.
In solidarity with the Ukrainian people, we raise the Ukrainian flag alongside the EU flag at our @eudiplomacy.bsky.social HQ.
This is more than a symbol.
Ukraine’s future lies within the EU.
With our support, Ukrainians are resisting and holding firm. (1/2)
Everybody understands that diplomacy is preferable to war.
Yet after a year of talks, we still do not even have ceasefire.
It is not Ukraine that is the obstacle to peace, Russia is.
We must flip the script to what Russia must do to meet the basic conditions for a just and lasted peace.
