On December 5, Ukraine’s Minister of Culture and Strategic Communications, Mykola Tochitsky, and the Minister of Culture and National Heritage of Poland, Hanna Wrublewska, opened the exhibition “Cabinet of European Art: Masterpieces from the Bogdan and Varvara Khanenko National Museum of Arts in Kyiv” in Warsaw. The exhibition is hosted in the historic interiors of the Royal Castle. In his opening speech, Mykola Tochitsky thanked Poland for its support of Ukrainian art, emphasizing the symbolism of the exhibition being held in the Royal Palace, which was destroyed during World War II but restored through the solidarity of Polish citizens. According to the Minister, this same solidarity between our two countries will allow us to counter Russian aggression and rebuild Ukraine after our shared victory.
Minister Hanna Wrublewska highlighted that the exhibition symbolizes Ukraine’s trust in Poland, entrusting such valuable cultural heritage for safekeeping and restoration. She emphasized Poland’s commitment to supporting Ukraine and noted the constructive cooperation between the two culture ministries.
