On February 22, 2024, on the occasion of the second anniversary of the beginning of the full-scale military aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, Italy issued a commemorative medal «Two years of Ukrainian resistance».
This was reported by the press service of the Embassy of Ukraine in Italy.
The medal was issued by the Polygraphic Institute and the State Mint of Italy together with the Italian Post Office.
The design of the medal was developed by students of the School of Medal Art in Rome.
The project envisages that from each commemorative medal purchased by collectors, 65 euros will be sent to the Children's Rehabilitation Center «Unbreakable Children». The center operates in the St. Nicholas Hospital in Lviv and provides physical and psychological treatment for war-traumatized children.
We will remind, as of February 2024, more than 30% of infrastructure facilities in the Mykolaiv Oblast have been restored. Hospitals and bridges were restored the most, and the residential sector the least.
Postwar reconstruction of Mykolaiv
Currently, it is known that about 60% of the aid that Denmark sends to Ukraine goes to Mykolaiv and the Mykolaiv region.
At the annual forum of the publishing house «Legal Practice» Business & Legal Infrastructure Forum, the ambassador of Denmark to Ukraine announced the vision of the post-war reconstruction of Mykolaiv with friendly conditions for pedestrians and bicycle infrastructure.
While in Mykolaiv, the ambassador explained that after the end of the full-scale war, Denmark would help Mykolaiv to restore and modernize its shipbuilding capacity.
In addition, Denmark will rebuild the Lyceum named after Mykola Arkas while preserving its authentic appearance. As of September 2023, Ukrainian architects presented Ole Egberg Mikkelsen with reconstruction options.
Another educational institution that the Danes will rebuild is Admiral Makarov National Shipbuilding University (NUK). The Ambassador of the Kingdom of Denmark to Ukraine Ole Egberg Mikkelsen is sure that this will revive Mykolaiv as a «city of shipbuilding».
The ambassador also supported the idea of creating a Danish quarter or park in Mykolaiv, but today this issue remains at the idea stage.
