The event began with a moment of silence in memory of the people who died because of the war in Ukraine.

"The people of the Republic of Moldova welcomed refugees into their homes and opened their hearts to them. We are grateful to all the people and religious organizations that helped us", said the president of the Congress of Ukrainians from the Republic of Moldova, Dmitri Lecartev. Leaders from different countries and religions gathered at the forum to appeal to people around the world to increase support for refugees. "It was the most generous support given to refugees, and we wanted to demonstrate to the people of the Republic of Moldova the true role of international organizations," said Gillian Traggs, assistant to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees. "It brings together all organizations from all over the world and also former representatives working in 97 countries to serve the needs of the community," says Secretary General of "Religions for Peace", Azza Karam. Ukrainian citizens refugees in the Republic of Moldova are offered temporary protection for a period of 1 year. They benefit from access to education, training, healthcare, legal status and other services from the state. Our country will continue to help Ukrainians, says Minister of Culture, Sergiu Prodan. "Now it is our duty to continue to support Ukraine, which needs our support," emphasized Minister Prodan.
