Putin’s bombs have caused a humanitarian catastrophe — forcing millions of Ukrainians to flee their country.

But people across the EU opened their homes and hearts in solidarity with 🇺🇦 friends.

We will continue to help for as long as it is needed.

Before Russia's war, 🇺🇦 Ukraine grew enough food to feed 400 million people. With its transport routes blocked or destroyed, it couldn't export.

Our #SolidarityLanes helped export 20 Mt of Ukraine's grain and agricultural products.

After the winter holidays, Ukrainian children will return to school.

But they will need our help to get there.
