This tweet is not really related to any hard news as such, but worth posting to remind ourselves what a breathtakingly beautiful country Ukraine can be. Definitely worth a visit some day, if circumstances permit
Former Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, who now is serving as an adviser to the administration of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, speaking today at the summit of the European People's Party ahead of the EU Summit in Brussels:
"I am the chairman of the advisory board to the Ukraine's president, and we know that every day we gather with him at his office and we speak about peace and every day as we speak about peace we hear that new soldiers have been killed, new civilians have been killed. How does it work to permanently ask for somebody to do everything to have peace and then at the same time to accept that there [are] casualties? So that is why we need Europe."
