On the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it is worth remembering those who, from different corners of the world, have stood shoulder to shoulder with Ukrainians in the fight for freedom.

Volunteers from more than 50 countries serve in the 2nd International Legion. Together with us, they hold back Russian aggression, defend Ukrainian cities and lives, share trenches, risks, and victories.

True solidarity is not statements or expressions of concern.

True solidarity is when a foreign volunteer covers your back in battle.

When his shot stops an occupier.

When he calls the defense of Ukraine his calling.

“Today we thank the thousands of foreign brothers and sisters in arms who serve and fight alongside us. We thank everyone who supports us with their words, actions, and sincere hearts. The 2nd International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine. Together to victory!” — the statement reads.
