THE UKRAINIAN WAY AND UKRAINIANS AROUND THE WORLD

Bogdan Rudnytski interviewed the Chair of the Australian Federation of Ukrainians Organisations and Vice President of the Ukrainian World Congress Stefan Romaniw, OAM. We spoke about Ukrainian diaspora in 64 countries and newly migration. The Australian Federation of Ukrainian Organisations (AFUO) called on the Australian Government to support the Ukrainian Parliament’s Resolution. The resolution calls for foreign governments to strengthen international condemnation of the the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, the illegal annexation of Crimea and the occupation of areas of Donbass, political repressions of Ukrainian citizens and the release of political prisoners. In a letter to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Marise Payne, and to the Australia-Ukraine Parliamentary Friendship Group, the AFUO advocated for a sign of support from Australia for Ukraine’s call to the international community to reinforce its message of support and sanctions.
