"We have to stand in solidarity and help Ukraine. We are in constant contact with the Mayor of Vinnytsia Serhii Morhunov providing us with reliable and up-to-date information on the necessary support measures and we have a list of the items and tools they are in need. We will provide special support based on it. It is very important that we also see the solidarity of our partner cities abroad - the communities of Lunen (Germany), Gradoli (Italy) and Goes (Netherlands) are also planning to contribute to the provision of humanitarian aid,”said Rytis Račkauskas, Mayor of Panevėžys.

Panevėžys will allocate 50 thousand Euros from the city budget for purchase of vital items for Ukrainian citizens.
