Dear Mike Robinson, Radio free Ukraine

On behalf of the Office of the President of Ukraine and the Permanent Mission of Ukraine to the United Nations, I have the honor to kindly invite you to the opening of the exhibition “Ukraine Crucifixion. Tribunal”, about the Russian Federation’s War Crimes in Ukraine, to be held on March 31, 2023 in New York.

The exhibit initiated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy will feature evidence of crimes against humanity committed by Russian forces since the full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Through artifacts collected in former Russian-occupied cities in Ukraine, you will see the ongoing brutal violations of the rights of prisoners of war (POW) and the destruction of Ukrainian cities, including its nonmilitary targets, such as schools and hospitals.

The display will also highlight crimes against the civilian population of Ukraine, international humanitarian rights abuses, and the violation of Ukraine’s territorial integrity. This comes ahead of an upcoming United Nations vote calling on the world to investigate the heinous Russian atrocities since the beginning of the war.

The exhibit will commence with a video message from President Zelenskyy, followed by remarks from the guests.

The opening program will include former POW and Ukrainian medic, Mrs. Yuliia ‘Taira’ Paievska, recently honored at The White House.

The exhibition was created by the National Museum of the History of Ukraine in the Second World War and the Bogdan Gubsky Foundation.

Where: 866 United Nations Plaza, NYC, 10017 New York. Entrance: 2nd Door, closest to the East River and FDR Drive.

When: March 31, 2023, at 3:30 pm.

I hope that you will accept this invitation and attend the opening of the upcoming exhibition.
We need your support to win.
Sincerely yours,

Andrii Smyrnov

Deputy Head of the Office

of the President of Ukraine
