The event’s organizer, former MP Pavlo Unguryan, said that the main goal of the Ukrainian Week is to strengthen economic, cultural and political ties between the two countries. The event is also aimed at engaging American conservative circles in Ukraine’s recovery and forming new alliances.
The week’s program includes:
Partnership Summit.
Prayer breakfast.
Business forums.
Women’s forum.
Cultural events.
Religious summits and meetings with the Ukrainian diaspora.
Main topics:
- Ukraine’s role in ensuring geopolitical stability in the region.
- Involvement of American business in the process of rebuilding Ukraine.
- Cultural diplomacy as a tool for strengthening people-to-people relations.
Member of Parliament Marian Zablotskyi emphasized the importance of cultural diplomacy in building an equal partnership.
“The visit to the monuments to Taras Shevchenko and the victims of the Holodomor is part of the program, but a symbolic gesture of gratitude to the American people, who have supported Ukraine to the tune of more than $170 billion, has not yet been made. In response, we need to develop equal cultural cooperation,” Zablotskyi said.
The MP also emphasized the importance of emphasizing common challenges, such as the activities of the axis of aggressor countries: Russia, Cuba, Iran, Nicaragua, and Venezuela.
“These countries not only cooperate with Russia, but also facilitate illegal migration to the United States. This is a common challenge that requires attention during Ukrainian initiatives in Washington,” he added.
The delegation will include MPs, diplomats, religious leaders, experts in economics, politics, media and culture.
