For five years Ukraine bravely protects its own sovereignty and territorial integrity. Our soldiers and the whole nation rallied to overcome the danger, preventing the enemy from moving deep into the country. 

In connection with the another act of Russia’s military aggression against our state - cynical disregard of the concluded  treaties and international navigation rules - the Verkhovna Rada at an extraordinary meeting on November 26, 2018 approved the introduction of martial law imposed by the Decree of the President of Ukraine for 30 days in several regions. 

The National Academy of Educational Sciences of Ukraine, scientists and scientific institutions collectives, unanimously condemn the another act of escalation of the Russian Federation′s military action against the Ukrainian state, strongly support the constitutional actions of the authorities to protect the Fatherland, counteract the treacherous violation of the treaties reached, norms of civilized coexistence. 

Fully aware of the national interests, peace-loving aspirations of the Ukrainian people, the NAES of Ukraine calls on all citizens to unite and support the Ukraine’s Armed Forces in order to protect the independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine. 

The NAES of Ukraine appeals to the world community to support the country, de-escalation of the crisis situation in the Azov Sea and other captured territories, in particular due to the strengthening existing and imposing new sanctions on the Russian Federation. 

We believe that joint national efforts and the broad world support will force Russia to stop its aggressive aspirations.
