Ukrainian culture should become another powerful voice in the world – Zelenska

She said this in her speech at the 7th Annual International Forum "Creative Ukraine," Ukrinform reports.

"We don't want only guns and weapons to be our voice. Ukraine defends itself and will continue to defend itself. At the same time, we want to be associated with civilization and powerful culture. We want to speak with the voice of creativity and creation. And it is extremely important right now for the world to hear the voice of a country that protects culture and civilization, not only its own, but also the world's," Zelenska said.
