Dnes na Karlově mostě v Praze jsme vytvořili živý řetěz jednoty kolem ukrajinské vlajky! Děkuji všem, kdo byli s námi na této důležité akci. V jednotě je naše síla! V jednotě bude naše vítězství nad ruskou tyranií. #StandWithUkraine #UnitedForUkraine #StopRussianAggression 🇺🇦🤝🇨🇿 pic.twitter.com/2iwWLy00Qg

The Ukrainian Unity Day celebrates the anniversary of the unification of eastern and western Ukraine in 1919.
Historically, up until 1919, these parts of Ukraine – the Ukraine’s People Republic and West Ukrainian People’s Republic – belonged to different empires.
On January 22, 1919, the Treaty of Unity was signed in Kyiv, fulfilling the dreams of the national movement and creating a unified Ukrainian state.
