“Ukraine is more consolidated than ever. We are standing as one, shoulder to shoulder, because we all want the same thing. We all speak one language and with one voice.”
—Former Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko
We were honored to have former Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko and former First Lady Kateryna Yushchenko join us at World Trade Center Utah. During their visit, they highlighted the importance of standing in solidarity with the Ukrainian people in their time of need.
Former President Yushchenko emphasized that "a victory for Ukraine is a victory for the free world," and urged the international community—and the state of Utah—to come together to support the people of Ukraine. Among the key topics discussed were the pressing need for housing, food, and basic necessities for Ukrainians, as well as the importance of unity in advocating for their rights.
The former President also highlighted the abundance of skilled workers and business opportunities in Ukraine, particularly in the country's thriving agriculture and tech sectors.
As we work towards a more connected and prosperous global community, roundtable discussions like these serve as a powerful reminder of the importance of collaboration and solidarity in achieving our shared goals.
Hosted in partnership with To Ukraine with Love.
