»Dies ist kein Krieg zwischen zwei Staaten, sondern ein Krieg zwischen zwei Systemen: Autoritarismus und Demokratie«
Dankesrede zum Friedensnobelpreis von Oleksandra Matviichuk (Center for Civil Liberties), 10.12.2022 (engl. Original)
This year, the entire Ukrainian nation was waiting for the announcement of the Nobel Peace Prize laureates. We see this Prize as a recognition of the efforts of the Ukrainian people, who have bravely stood up to the attempts to destroy peaceful development of Europe, as well as a celebration of the work being done by human rights activists in order to prevent military threat for the entire world. We are proud of having Ukrainian language heard during the official ceremony for the first time in history.
