➡ The meeting was organized with the assistance of Emmanuel Jacob, President of the European Organisation of Military Associations and Trade Unions (EUROMIL), which is the voice of the European military at an international level. Its primary mission is to promote professional and social interests, as well as the fundamental rights and freedoms of European veterans.
The purpose of the meeting was to initiate partnership between our organizations in order to pledge their support for projects for veterans. In particular, in bringing the attention of the public to the needs and problems of Ukrainian veterans. And this in turn will help raise awareness of the importance of supporting veterans and mobilize public resources to help them. We are grateful to EUROMIL for organizing this meeting and to all partner organizations who are ready to join the effort of supporting Ukrainian veterans.
Ukraine respects and values its heroes, is ready to help them in the transition to a peaceful life, and actively works to ensure their well-being and future. And at this point, it is important for us to pledge the support of powerful organizations, adopt their experience, and work on new projects.
