Ambassador of Ukraine to Finland Olga Dibrova attended the unique event Hamina Tattoo - a festival of military bands, which is held once every two years in the Finnish city of
#Hamina with the support of the Finnish Defense Forces.
During each festival, the audience gets acquainted with various military musical traditions of the countries of the world, their history. This year, the military bands of Finland, USA, France, Norway, Belgium and Sweden are taking part in the event.
More than two years have passed since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Our defenders are bravely resisting the Russian aggressor, fighting for the freedom and independence of all of Europe. This is not forgotten in Finland either. The Hamina Tattoo festival honored the exploits of Ukrainian heroes by including the Ukrainian song 'Oh, u luzi chervona kalyna'—one of the symbols of our people's indomitability in the fight against the Russian invaders—in the festival program.
On behalf of Ambassador of Ukraine, Olga Dibrova, we express our sincere gratitude to the event organizers, the City Council of Hamina, and the musicians for their support and solidarity with
#Ukraine!
