On the 216th day of the war, on 27 September 2022, Counsellor of the Embassy of Ukraine in Denmark Yurii Romanchuk took part in a session of the “Diplomatic Platform” created by students of the Kyiv State University of Trade and Economics with the aim of attracting interested young people in the fields of diplomacy and international relations.
The organizers of the Platform organize conferences and lectures with diplomats, thematic gatherings and even role-playing games that reflect the activities of international organizations.
During the meeting, the students were interested in issues of bilateral relations between Ukraine and Denmark, in particular military cooperation between our countries, Denmark′s support for Ukraine′s Euro-Atlantic aspirations, as well as the energy component of bilateral cooperation.
During the conversation with the youth, Yurii Romanchuk emphasized: “Although our countries are not strategic partners, nevertheless, Ukraine and Denmark are true friends, which was proven during seven months of our resistance to Russian aggression. The Danes accepted the Ukrainians in their country with sincere feelings, that is true empathy, it is a brotherhood that has thousand-year roots.”
“Diplomatic Platform” has already organized meetings of University students with Ukrainian diplomats working in Turkey, Switzerland and Japan, as well as with the director of the NATO Information and Documentation Centre in Ukraine.
