Ukraine thanks PH for condemning invasion

THE government of Ukraine on Thursday expressed its 'sincere gratitude' to the Philippines for joining other countries in condemning Russia's 'unprovoked attack' against it.

Olexander Nechytaylo, the non-resident Ukrainian ambassador to the Philippines, cited the country's support for a resolution in the United Nations calling out Russia's aggression and approving a $100,000 aid for Ukrainian refugees.
