The Ambassador of Ukraine to Switzerland took part in the event “The War Against Ukrainian Libraries and Literature” held on 2–3 December in Bern, organized by the Ukraine Culture Network with the support of Kornhaus Bibliotheken Bern and the Swedish Library Association. We express our sincere gratitude for the organization and implementation of these extremely important events.

We thank all panelists for their in-depth analysis, commitment, and dedication to protecting Ukrainian culture. Special thanks go to Jacques Gerber for his support, to writer Andrey Kurkov, whose participation brought an important voice of Ukrainian literature, to the Ukrainian Library Association, PEN Ukraine, and photographer Åke Ericson for his impressive exhibition documenting the truth about the crimes committed against Ukrainian libraries, writers, and cultural figures.

We highly appreciate the solidarity of our partners from Switzerland and Sweden, as well as the support of everyone who contributed to these events.
