Joy is gone but hope remains: Canadian ambassador to Ukraine on invasion anniversary
Larisa Galadza, Canada’s Ukraine ambassador, said she woke up that morning with a sense of apprehension. One year later, Galadza said most Ukrainians aren’t seeing the day as a chance for reflection. They’re still living the reality.
Some feared the city would fall to Russian occupation, but Ukrainian flags still fly over Maidan — a city square in the heart of Kyiv that represents independence. Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly visited the city last week in a show of solidarity with Ukraine. She pledged $21 million for projects to support “Ukraine’s security, accountability, and stabilization efforts,” including buying equipment to help government works de-mine liberated territories and support victims of conflict-related sexual assaults.
“That was very meaningful to do that in the middle of Kyiv, the Kyiv that Russia thought they were going to take in a matter of hours,” she said. “It was powerful.”
