The First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska addressed the World Council of Churches with a request to become a mediator in the organization of humanitarian corridors and to help Ukrainians fleeing the war.

"I appeal to you as to an organization called to preach peace and fraternity: be the voice of those who suffer from war today! Communicate to the members of the World Council of Churches the importance of professing justice and peace on our land based on faith in God. I ask you and the members of the World Council of Churches to convey your voice condemning the war and calling for the protection of the civilian population," the wife of the President of Ukraine noted.

Since the beginning of the war, Olena Zelenska has been working on humanitarian support for Ukrainians. In particular, she actively cooperates with international organizations, the first ladies of other countries to resolve humanitarian crises in Ukraine. Now she is focused on providing the necessary assistance to children and mothers and saving their lives. That is why Olena Zelenska appealed to the World Council of Churches to help Ukraine.
