Ukraine is grateful to Azerbaijan for the regular humanitarian
support it has been providing since the first day of the conflict,
Ukraine's Ambassador to Azerbaijan Vladislav Kanevsky said.
He made the remarks on the sidelines of the exhibition of
children's drawings, entitled 'Mom, I don't want war' in Baku,
organized by the embassies of Poland and Ukraine in Azerbaijan
under the chairmanship of the Polish Education Ministry.
Kanevsky noted that tons of food products, medicine, and other
necessary goods constantly arrive in Ukraine from Azerbaijan.
Similarly, Polish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Rafal Poborsk
stressed that Poland is very pleased that Azerbaijan is among the
countries that provide Ukraine with the humanitarian support it
needs today.
He also added that he was very saddened by the news of those
killed as a result of tension on the Armenian-Azerbaijani
border.
'I express my deepest condolences. Our thoughts are with the
families and children of the martyrs. I want to wish that peace
will be established in Ukraine and Azerbaijan soon,' Poborsk
said.
The Azerbaijani government, as well as Baku and Sumgayit cities,
have earlier sent 807 tons of humanitarian aid to Ukraine,
consisting of medicines, medical supplies, as well as food
products.
On July 5, at the Heydar Aliyev International Airport, Ukrainian
ambassador to Azerbaijan Vladislav Kanevsky told the media that
Azerbaijan had supplied over 1,500 tons of humanitarian aid to
