First Ladies of Lublin Triangle countries meet at Ukrainian Institute in New York

“Today, the countries of the Lublin triangle met in the person of the First Ladies and in a special place. I met with my colleagues - First Lady of Poland Agata Kornhauser-Duda and First Lady of Lithuania Diana Nausediene - at the Ukrainian Institute in New York within the framework of the 77th session of the UN General Assembly," Zelenska said in a Telegram post.

According to Zelenska, they had a lot to discuss: the protection of Ukrainian women and children in host countries, children's education, in particular the opportunity to learn the Ukrainian language/continue studying in Ukrainian schools online along with visiting local schools, projects for children's recreation and health, and cultural initiatives.

The First Ladies paid special attention to the issue of effective involvement of international organizations in overcoming social challenges arising as a result of the war in Ukraine. In particular, Mrs. Diana Nausediene offered to unite efforts of the First Ladies and international non-governmental organizations for the development of projects and initiatives.

"I received absolute support and confidence that our closest friends and partners defend and will defend the interests of Ukraine and Ukrainians. Global cooperation is always multifaceted, but let it be our ‘triangle of like-minded people’ that is the basis,” Olena Zelenska emphasized.
