President of Ukraine

President's wife

For the world to let itself get tired of the war in Ukraine is to let us die. Literally. Because the empire won't stop. It must be stopped. And that's what Ukraine is doing right now.

In the text dedicated to Ukraine and its struggle against Russian invasion, the President's wife emphasized that Russia's war against our state is a war in the global world, an attack on all international agreements and human rights.

First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska took part in a meeting on the implementation of the School Meals Reform Strategy approved by the Cabinet of Ministers in late October. The event was held in Kyiv under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

Anne Hidalgo briefed the First Lady of Ukraine on the Solidarity Factory project. It is a place for quick response to various emergency situations, where one can receive rapid humanitarian assistance or undergo volunteer training courses.

The team of the Ukrainian Institute will work at La Gaîté Lyrique (a cultural venue in Paris) with the support of the Open Society Foundation, the French Ministry of Culture, the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, the French Institute, the City Hall of Paris, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and the Embassy of Ukraine in France.

During her visit to France, First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska, together with First Lady Brigitte Macron and Minister of Education Gabriel Attal, visited the Elementary School de l'Arbalete, a French public school located in the central part of Paris, in the historic 5th arrondissement.

Olena Zelenska emphasized that since 2012, there have been no Ukrainian studies at the Sorbonne, while there are master's programs in Russian culture. After meeting with President of Sorbonne University Nathalie Drach-Temam, the First Lady expressed hope that a Ukrainian studies course would be introduced.

As part of her Ukrainian Bookshelf project, First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska donated Ukrainian contemporary books to the UNESCO Library. The event was attended by UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay.

First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska has arrived in France. The main purpose of her visit is to participate in the opening of the Ukrainian Institute in Paris.

Olena Zelenska thanked her colleague for systematic and extremely active assistance to Ukraine and its citizens. In particular, with the support of the First Lady of Poland, a series of training sessions were held in Ukraine for Ukrainian doctors and rescuers in various fields.
