Kicking off my trip to 🇺🇦 at the Green School Recovery Camp. #Ukrainian children and youth do not deserve what #Russia is inflicting on them. They deserve to learn and grow in peace and @euinemergencies.ec.europa.eu 🇪🇺 is honoured to support those who create such spaces with 🇵🇱 Solidarity Fund

Around ten years ago I visited the #Chornobyl area - one of the most impressive places I have ever been to. The level of devastation by a technology that was seen as bringing a bright future. But also how much nature had claimed back control. #RussianAggression in Ukraine made things worse again
