(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 8 - Justice Minister Marta Cartabia
visited Ukraine's pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai Tuesday to show
solidarity with the eastern European nation invaded by its
powerful neighbour Russia.
"On this day visiting the Expo I wanted to take in the Ukraine
pavilion as a sign of closeness and participation with the
Ukrainian people," she said.
"My thought go out to all the civilians, but on this day in
particular, International Women's Day, to the women.
"Historically it is in fact on the most vulnerable people,
women, children, the elderly, that any crisis hits in a
particular way."
Cartabia visited the pavilion with the director of the site,
Ivan Sydorenko.
She left a post-it note saying "A heartful thought to all the
Ukraine people. Peace". (ANSA).
