"Today we mark the anniversary of the Bucha massacre. On that day, horrific images of tortured civilians shocked the whole world. Such a strong European presence on this day demonstrates that justice for this and other Russian atrocities is inevitable. Comprehensive accountability for Russian crimes is vital for restoring justice in Europe. And today we will advance efforts on the justice track," the Foreign Minister emphasized.

"This visit is a sign of true courage and solidarity with Ukraine. I am grateful to High Representative-Vice President Kaja Kallas and all European colleagues who came to Ukraine today," Sybiha emphasized.
It is good to be in Kyiv today with the foreign ministers of European countries. Every visit is a powerful reminder of Ukraine's courage and resilience. Europe is with you. We will continue to provide military, financial, energy, and humanitarian support. And we will do everything possible to ensure full accountability for Russia's crimes.
