Dear Ukrainian colleagues and friends! Our thoughts are constantly with you in Odessa and in other parts of the Ukraine in this terrifying situation of aggression that we are witnessing now in Ukraine, when the existence of so much that we value highly is severely threatened.

We look back at our meeting with you in May 2019 at Odessa I.I. Mechnikov National University (http://onu.edu.ua/en/) together with our project colleagues from Batumi Shota Rustaveli State University (Georgia), Alecu Russo State University of Bălţi (Moldova), Yerevan State University (Armenia) and Malmö University (Sweden).
