Kharkiv: the city of Creativity 🎨 А home to 160K students, whose dynamic youth pushes the city forward. Ukraine’s cradle of art, science, and architecture.
Founded by Cossacks, Kharkiv continues to embrace new cultural formats and creative trends.🌻
P.S. You could have heard about Kharkiv from the international media depicting ruined buildings and suffering people. This is what Russia’s full-scale war brought to the city, yet its true soul remains as amazing as it has always been. Explore it in our #CitiesOfFreedom documentary 🇺🇦

Mariupol: the city of change & historical contrasts ☀️/❄️ From the temper of Cossack to the sophistication of Greek traditions; from the light-hearted indie/trip-hop tune into old-school heavy metal sound, from a carefree aquamarine heart into a large metallurgical (im)plant 🤖
After the Russian invasion in 2014, Mariupol opened its iron doors to Ukrainians fleeing the war in Donetsk and Luhansk regions looking for a safe place🛡, with its new residents, the city revived itself. The renewed city was ready to become the center of flourishing life in the east of Ukraine. But…
But the day when it’ll spread its sails and become a peaceful harbor again
is coming ⛵️

- Russia has put the world on the brink of a radiation disaster.
- Russia has put the world on the brink of an unprecedented famine.
- If we do not stop Russia now in Ukraine, if we do not stop it with the victory of Ukraine, all these Russian murderers will inevitably end up in other countries. Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America - traces of Russian war criminals are everywhere already, and we must all unite and act as resolutely as possible so that there are no more traces of Russian missiles and cities burned by Russian artillery anywhere else.

Bucha: this city could have become a perfect setting for the first ‘Twilight’ movie 🌖: green islands outside the Ukrainian capital, dozens of green parks, quiet neighborhoods, and towering pines right under the windows of new apartments 🎄
The suburbs of Kyiv. The homes of happy people, completely different but united by a common desire — to live in a quiet, peaceful place and build their future✨

🇦🇺 [Penny Wong, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Australia. The Second Summit of the Crimean Platform]
🇺🇦 “There is clear evidence of Russia committing egregious war crimes: torture, mass executions, rape, shelling civilians, and forced deportations. Australia deplores Russia’s oppression of human rights in Crimea including arbitrary detentions & arrests, torture & forced disappearances. We call on Russia to immediately withdraw its forces from Ukraine, comply with its obligations under international law, and release all Ukrainian prisoners unjustly detained in Crimea.” – Penny Wong
💫We thank Australia for its support!

🔥 “We hadn’t had HIMARS yet, but we had people who were ready to stop the tanks with their bare hands.”

🇦🇺 Actions and inaction of every official in the security sector and in the law enforcement agencies will be evaluated - address by the President of Ukraine
Good health to you, fellow Ukrainians!
Today I was informed of the results of another operation against criminals who worked for the enemy.
Employees of the State Bureau of Investigation together with the Security Service of Ukraine detained the former head of the Main Directorate of the Security Service of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. This person was dismissed by me at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, and as we can see, that decision was completely justified. Sufficient evidence has been collected to notify this person of suspicion of treason. All his criminal activities are documented. Everything he has done during these months as well as earlier will get a proper legal assessment.
Everyone who together with him was part of a criminal group that worked in the interests of the Russian Federation will also be held accountable. It is about the transfer of secret information to the enemy and other facts of cooperation with the Russian special services.
I want to thank everyone who participated in this operation. It can truly be called self-purification.
I visited the frontline regions - the most difficult ones. I personally dealt with the activities of the law enforcement agencies in particular. As a result of this, as you already know, personnel decisions were made regarding the regional heads of the security sector - Kherson, Kharkiv. We also sorted out the issues of the local leadership of the executive power.
The specific actions and any inaction of each official in the security sector and in law enforcement agencies will be evaluated. The corresponding inspection of law enforcement agencies has already yielded the first results and will be continued.
As of today, 651 criminal proceedings have been registered regarding treason and collaboration activities of employees of prosecu
🇦🇺 Russia's missiles, artillery not to be able to break our unity, to throw us off our path – address of President of Ukraine
Dear Ukrainians! Ukrainian men and women!
On this day, 32 years ago, the Declaration of State Sovereignty of Ukraine was endorsed. It was the first document of this kind after many years, which confirmed the right of our people to live independently. Independently and in a democratic way. The specific points of the Declaration reflected the realities of that time and the hopes that prevailed in our society. 32 years later, after eight years of war in Donbas and on the 143rd day of the full-scale war against Russia, it may seem that the text of the Declaration could be different, particularly from a security point of view. But at that time this text was also of a revolutionary character. The Declaration restored the tradition of Ukrainian state-establishing, and it was on its basis that the Act of Declaration of Independence of Ukraine was later adopted. And today, when our people are fighting for independence, we have our right in every sense of the word – historically, politically, culturally and, what is very important – legally. In particular, our people's confidence in victory is based on this.
Ukraine has withstood Russia's brutal blows. We have already managed to liberate part of the territory that was occupied after February 24. We will gradually liberate other regions of our state that are currently under the occupation. During such a war, we were able to obtain the status of the EU candidate. We have maintained the stability of public institutions. The power system was rebuilt to work in the power grid of the European continent. All logistical processes in the state – military and economic – were rechanneled. And most importantly, we maintain internal unity, having overcome conflicts and contradictions that had hindered us in the past.
We must all remember the cost of mistakes and discord that made it difficult for
🇦🇺We will come to the day when Russian terror will become impossible, but for this we still need to fight – address of President of Ukraine
Ukrainians! Ukrainian men and women!
Today, the European Union announced the first details of the new, seventh sanctions package being prepared against the Russian Federation, and the task of Ukrainian diplomats is to do everything to strengthen this package.
After an attack on Vinnytsia and other terrorist attacks by the Russian army, the occupiers must feel what a fair response to terror means. In particular, it will be felt thanks to sanctions. Of course, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will certainly provide their part of the answer. The occupiers will have no restful nights.
The identification of all those guilty in the attack on the city of Vinnytsia has already begun. Both at the national level and at the international level, we will do everything to make absolutely all Russian murderers responsible for what they have done.
The Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine reported to me today full information about the rescue operation that was run in the city. In total, almost two hundred people applied for medical help. Four people are currently in critical condition, unfortunately. Four citizens are still missing in the list. Everything is being done on the ground to clarify their fate. The death toll has not changed at this time – 23 people.
The minister also briefed me on the attack of the Russian army on the city of Mykolaiv this morning. The buildings of two institutes – pedagogical and shipbuilding – have been destroyed.
There are no such words in normal human language that can describe the state to which the Russian state has degraded. It is a double crime – to destroy particularly pedagogical institutes, so that there is no educational institution, and new educators cannot be trained...
But let the terrorists not hope that this will give them something. We will definitely restore everything they destroye

Drahobrat, winter in Ukraine
🏔 The Carpathian Mountains in winter will amaze you with breathtaking views, majestic rocks, snowy dreamlike forests and more! Here are the natural wonders we recommend to visit:
🔹 Dovbush Rocks, Ivano-Frankivsk region
🔹 Shypit Waterfall, Zakarpattia region (it doesn't freeze in winter and keeps running even when everything around is still!)
🔹 Pip Ivan — one of the highest mountains in the Carpathians
If you get to the very top of the last, you will see a white elephant! Relax — this is just the title of an old observatory, which looks like a snowy castle in winter.
Enjoy winter Carpathians & #VisitUkraineInWinter❄️
