FUEN initiates new project

Starting from today, representatives of minorities from Ukraine and Russia will arrive in the German-Danish border region for a new project format. A kickoff meeting will take place for the project "The role of the national minorities in Ukraine".

The meeting will gather representatives of the Crimean Tatars, Greeks and Germans from Ukraine and Kumyks, Karelians and Germans from Russia, and the former Commissioner for Minority Issues of the Ukrainian Government, Gennadiy Druzenko.

The project was prepared by FUEN President Hans Heinrich Hansen, FUEN Vice President Olga Martens and FUEN Secretary General Susann Schenk.

Tomorrow the participants will join a panel discussion during the conference "Minorities in border regions", which is taking place in Sønderborg.
