'Lithuanian parliamentarians also called on representatives of parliaments of other EU countries to come to Ukraine to express their support and solidarity with the Ukrainian people in their heroic struggle for their independence and freedom,' Klitschko stressed.

On February 24, Russian president Vladimir Putin launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian troops shell and destroy infrastructure, conduct massive shelling of residential areas of Ukrainian cities, towns, and villages using artillery, MLRS, and ballistic missiles.

The United States, the European Union, and other countries have imposed sanctions on Russia as an aggressor whose international isolation grows every day. The International Criminal Court has begun documenting and investigating Russia's war crimes in Ukraine.
