LEICESTER, United Kingdom – Ukraine’s people will “bravely defend their country, democracy, and the rule of law in Europe” as it fights against Russia’s invasion of the country, the Ukrainian bishop in London has said.
Bishop Kenneth Nowakowski, the Eparchial Bishop of the Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of the Holy Family of London, was speaking after a meeting in the Ukrainian Embassy last week.
Russia illegally annexed Crimea in 2014 and launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Russia has been making slow advances in Ukraine, but is suffering huge casualties, as are the Ukrainians.
