We stand united with the global community condemning this unprovoked act of aggression that has sent tens of thousands of Ukrainians flee-ing their homes in fear of their lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Ukraine, their families and loved ones. We call for peace and a swift end to the aggression.”
