Wellcome to Ukraine

The Ukrainians, with their ancient history and lovely land, combined with their contribution to the modern world of science and technology, have a tremendous amount to offer. Most of all they have their friendship; once Ukrainians are your friends they are always your friends. They will stand by you in times of trouble, cheer you with a joke or a song, and be ready to join wholeheartedly in your celebrations.
The Ukraine is a very ancient country and should never be confused with Russia or any other country. It has its own language and customs. The Ukrainian language and culture derive more from the country’s long connections with Eastern Europe than form it ties with Russia.
