The announcement in detail:
“BOUBOURA FOUNDATION
ODESSA, UKRAINE
February 26, 2022
Dear friend,
Russia launched a deliberate, unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine.
A sovereign country with its own national identity, history and future.
We stand behind and for Ukraine. It is our land, our homeland, our soil. We are ready to fight to protect our homes and families from Russian imperialist aggression.
In these critical and deadly moments, we, the Bouboura Foundation family, appeal to ALL guests of our FORUM in Odessa to support the defense of Ukraine in any way you can!
We fight for freedom and peace, for our right and the right of our children to live and prosper in a free, autonomous Ukraine. Our soldiers are REAL HEROES.
FROM NOW ON, WE SAY HEROES FIGHT LIKE UKRAINIANS.
And we, along with the free international community, pay tribute to the heroism of our President ZELENSKY.
Our family is from Greece and the Greeks taught the world that love and protection of homeland is the supreme principle of free people.
“ABOVE EVERYTHING IS HOME”
“OVER EVERYTHING IS THE FREEDOM OF THE HOMELANDS”
We remain stable in Odessa and ready to protect our homes. This is our home now and we are ready to die for freedom.
This is a time for clarity, conviction and unity in the free world. BORDERS DO NOT CHANGE IN THE 21ST CENTURY BY VIOLENCE. TODAY UKRAINE, TOMORROW WHO?
PLEASE to each of you:
Request your governments to send defense equipment to Ukraine. Try installing a NO-FLIGHT ZONE OVER UKRAINE! We’ll defend the ground, but we’re in dire need of air support.
We stand together, apart WE ALL FALL.
I WANT UKRAINE!
