"We, Ukrainians, are going through difficult trials, defending our dignity and independence, paying the highest price to make our European dreams come true, because Russia's war against Ukraine is another attempt to destroy European values. Slovakia, along with the entire civilized world, supports us in this confrontation, and thanks to this, we feel like a part of a big European family right now," Mrochko added.

For his part, Vitaliy Belobrov said that it was in the Slovak capital that most Ukrainians were sheltered, and in Ruzhynov - the most in Bratislava. He expressed the gratitude of all Ukrainians for the warm welcome and support for those who were forced to leave their homes, and for the humanitarian aid that continues to flow to Ukrainian cities.

Belobrov and the mayor of the Slovak capital and the governor of the region also discussed areas of cooperation and available opportunities.
