Everything for evacuees: in Novi Sanzhary the bridge was painted in the colors of the Ukrainian flag
Volunteers from Kharkov painted the bridge over the Vorskla in Novi Sanzhary as a sign of support for Ukrainians evacuated from China, who were stoned by angry locals last week.
This was reported by the regional news agency Poltava Region News, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Reportedly, on February 23, about 20 volunteers from Kharkov arrived in Novi Sanzhary.
As a sign of support for their compatriots evacuated from China, “activists” painted the bridge across the Vorskla in the colors of the Ukrainian flag.
“We want to show that the warm reception that we had on February 20 was not indicative. All of Ukraine supports them. We are with them, we are not afraid of the virus, the epidemic, because we are familiar. What happened were mistakes and provocations. In fact, people respect the evacuees and are glad that they returned to Ukraine,” volunteer Anton Sheinin convinced journalists.
“People gave us fruits and sweets. A team of our volunteers went to give this to the evacuees. In memory of ourselves, we would like to paint the bridge across the river in the colors of the Ukrainian flag,” explained volunteer Elena “Desyushka.”
