Our brave soldiers and civilians defend the physical and spiritual integrity of Ukraine, while we, diplomats, scholars, and experts, continue our efforts on the information fronts, educating the American and international community about what is truly at stake and why Ukraine is resisting so persistently and relentlessly, even in the most difficult situations
Markarova also stressed that it is important to restore historical justice, as well as to recognize that the Russian Federation is not only waging war against Ukraine but is also trying to annex part of its cultural heritage and identity.
