Dear Brothers and Sisters!
On behalf of the MTWTU, our members, and all the people of Ukraine, please accept our sincere condolences on the tragic events in your country.
We were very saddened to hear about the disaster, which claimed thousands of victims of Turkey residents. We are well aware of what it is like to lose compatriots, and although we cannot take away your pain, we share it with you.
Through this period of sorrow, your people, who suffered from the earthquake, now require a supportive shoulder, which we are sure your Good Trade Union can serve as. We hope that these hard times will end soon and your country will recover from distress.
Our deepest sympathies are with the people of Turkey.
With blessings and prayers,
Oleg Grygoriuk,
Chairman
Marine Transport Workers' Trade Union of Ukraine
