The MEP and co-chair of ALDE is among the European politicians who in an open letter addressed to the Nobel Committee, nominated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for the Nobel Peace Prize.
“The world is shocked by the images of war coming from Ukraine. Millions of families now live in fear, and their homes and livelihoods are threatened by bombings and an invading army. We are witnessing the courage of Ukrainian citizens to resist this war against them by the Russian Federation. We believe that now is the time to show the people of Ukraine that the world is on their side, “the diplomats wrote in the letter.
In the letter, the group called for the nomination deadline to be extended to March 31 so that Zelensky and the people of Ukraine can be seen as nominated for the Nobel Prize.
We remind you that the bureau of the ALDE party, chaired by Ilhan Kyuchyuk, took immediate action a few days ago to grant temporary membership to Sluha Narodu, the party founded by President Volodymyr Zelensky. This proves once again the support of the Liberals for Ukraine and the Ukrainian citizens, who face Russian aggression on a daily basis, fighting for European values.
