Brussels, 25th February 2022

The SLAVONIC EUROPE Movement and its PARTNERS condemn in the strongest terms the Russian invasion of the REPUBLIC OF UKRAINE, assisted cowardly by the satrap government of Belorussia, which constitutes the strongest violation of International Law and an unprecedented act of aggression against a free democratic and independent country and people as a whole from two other countries in Europe and the world in the 21st century.

This act of violence and non-respect of Human Rights on its own contradicts everything what the Slavonic culture is standing for since the times of Cyril and Method and their humanist Slavonic civilisation heritage.

We call the aggressors for retiring immediately from the sovereign territory of the REPUBLIC OF UKRAINE and, at the same time, we call the people of Russia and Belarus to stand up and fight, peacefully using all democratic means, for an immediate democratic change in their respective countries:

A social and political change they merit since a long time already, which will lead them, finally, to a FREE, OPEN AND PROSPER DEMOCRATIC FUTURE FOR THEM AND THEIR CHILDREN.
