"500 days of Ukraine beating the odds. 500 days of Ukrainians inspiring the world. 500 days of Europe and the democratic world united like a few other times in history. I want to say how proud I am that our European Parliament has stood with Ukraine and its people from day one," Metsola said.
She also recalled the assistance to Ukraine in the purchase of power generators as part of the all-European "Generators of Hope" campaign.
"This Parliament, our European Union, will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with the courageous people of Ukraine for as long as it takes. For Ukraine. For Europe. For democracy. For liberty to prevail," Metsola said.
On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a new stage of the war against Ukraine, which has been ongoing since 2014 - a full-scale invasion.
