Dear Comrades and Friends,

In these last few days, the eyes of the world are upon the Great Game currently being played by the United States and Russia in the Ukraine. The Mainstream Media, as with the Covid crisis, are promoting a fear campaign which contributes to further destabilizing Eastern Europe, with the suggestion that an invasion of Ukraine is imminent and that the country is out of control.

In addition, the Anglo-Americans' hasty and blatant withdrawal of some of its embassy staffs and their relatives from Kiev has also increased this perception. But in reality, the situation is no different from that of last year, and as the Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Monday 24 January 2022, "the situation is under control" and "there is no reason to panic".

Of course, as the NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has also claimed “the risk of a conflict is real,” then so we wish that USA and Russia de-escalate the tension and that diplomacy be used to solve the crisis.

From our side, we want to reassure our members and friends that our events will go on as scheduled, we are here in Ukraine and we are open, so do not hesitate to register and take part in our upcoming jump events in Lviv, and most importantly, continue to support our upcoming Training and Humanitarian Mission 2022 to provide medical training assistance and carry essential medical first aid equipment, and humanitarian supplies to our Ukrainian airborne brothers in the war-torn eastern Ukraine.

 

Airborne!
