The meeting was also attended by representatives of the Vinnytsia office of the Red Cross of Ukraine, who also actively cooperate with French volunteers.
‘Mr Olivier Babel and his team: Pierre Warusefeld, Pascal Degremont, and Irina Pidoux, provide humanitarian aid to Vinnytsia hospitals and promptly deliver the goods to our city. The French are collecting furniture, rehabilitation equipment and medical supplies according to the needs of our hospitals - exactly what our doctors need now. We sincerely thank our sister city of Nancy and the French volunteers who are lending a helping hand to Vinnytsia and Ukraine in this difficult time of war. This help is extremely valuable to us, as is your support: Nancy, France, and the whole of Europe. After all, Ukraine is now standing guard over freedom and democracy not only in its own land, but also in the entire free world,' said Deputy Mayor Halyna Yakubovych.
In his turn, Olivier Babel noted that Nancy would not stop supporting Vinnytsia. Ukrainians living in the French city are also joining in.
‘We help Ukraine because Ukraine is Europe, Ukraine protects the rest of Europe from the russian aggressor. Vinnytsia is a sister city of Nancy. And for all the time we have been visiting you, Ukrainians have become our friends and true brothers. It is our sincere wish to help you,’ Olivier Babel said.
As a reminder, on 9 December 2023, Vinnytsia Mayor Serhii Morhunov and Nancy Mayor Mathieu Klein signed a twinning agreement in France. In April 2024, Vinnytsia ratified the twinning agreement between our city and Nancy, France, and also ratified the Karlsruhe-Nancy-Vinnytsia Trilateral Agreement.
