Current Situation in Ukraine:

The war in Ukraine is a tragic and threatening situation which means great suffering for many people and affects us greatly. Our deepest sympathy goes to all people who are directly and indirectly victims of the Russian military attack. We call for the end of all hostilities. Given the situation, we sincerely hope that this senseless war will come to a permanent end as soon as possible, as it is only in peace that there can be freedom and wellbeing.

Our hearts and thoughts are with everyone affected.
