The Ukrainian ambassador to the UK has paid tribute to the “uniqueness” of Liverpool and how the city has embraced his country in hosting Eurovision.
Tomorrow marks the grand final of the 67th European song contest which Liverpool has stepped into hold on behalf of Ukraine. Events have taken place right across the city and the wider region to celebrate the competition but the host nation has been denied the opportunity as conflict continues.
Vadym Prystaiko, the Ukrainian ambassador to the UK, said given Liverpool’s warm embrace of his country throughout this month, it was only right that they return the favour when the war is over and it can host the contest again.
