Dear Mr Ambassador
I am writing to you as Mayor of the City Council of Chichester in West Sussex.
I would like to send our support and strength to your fellow citizens of Ukraine from the people of Chichester. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of unimaginable difficulty and hardship inflicted on the Ukrainian people by President Putin.
We see on television all that has been endured by your people with images of the wounded, the displaced, and their suffering. We will keep eternally in our memories those people who have lost their lives in this unjust war and will pray for the repatriation of all those who have fled the country.
Warmest regards.
Yours sincerely
Councillor John Hughes The Mayor of Chichester
