ZAGREB, 27 Feb 2022 - National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine president Anatoliy Zahorodniy on Sunday thanked Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts (HAZU) president Velimi Neidhardt for the solidarity and support expressed over Russia's aggression against Ukraine, HAZU said.
"We are touched by your letter of support which condemns Russia's aggression against Ukraine," Zahorodniy said, adding that the Ukrainian academy "is deeply grateful for the support and solidarity."
He said it was very important to them to know that the war against Ukraine started by Russia was eliciting an adequate response from the scientific community, and that the civilised world must stop the aggressor.
"Your support reinforces our faith in victory. We are proud of the Ukrainian people. We are proud of our armed forces and of our defenders... And we will win," Zahorodniy said.
