Shchedryk in Paris

Many French and Ukrainians witnessed a performance during the lighting of Christmas lights in Paris, where the Ukrainian carol 'Shchedryk', known worldwide as 'Carol of the Bells', was performed. This event reflects the special traditions and common values of our countries.

Such events demonstrate the importance of cultural exchange and cooperation between states, fostering mutual understanding and support in challenging times.
