On October 13, 2024, a new bridge of solidarity was built between France and Ukraine with the signing of a twinning agreement between the towns of Rueil-Malmaison and Chernivtsi.
During the ceremony, Patrick Ollier, mayor of Rueil-Malmaison, and Roman Klichuk, mayor of Chernivtsi, signed the protocol in the presence of Vadym Omelchenko, Ukrainian ambassador to France. This link between the two cities reinforces the concrete actions in support of Ukraine.
At the same time, the Jacques Baumel media library inaugurated the exhibition “L’Ukraine, les résistantes de l’ombre ”, highlighting 20 portraits of Ukrainian women who, through their courage, are actively participating in the resistance against Russian aggression. The exhibition, open until November 2, is a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of the Ukrainian people.
Many thanks to the Ukraine-Rueil association, chaired by Kate Rozdabara, who helped make the event a success. This twinning promises to be the starting point for inspiring projects in the spirit of Franco-Ukrainian friendship and solidarity.
En parallèle, la médiathèque Jacques Baumel a inauguré l’exposition « L’Ukraine, les résistantes de l’ombre », mettant en lumière 20 portraits de femmes ukrainiennes qui, par leur courage, participent activement à la résistance contre l’agression russe. Cette exposition, ouverte jusqu’au 2 novembre, est un témoignage puissant de la force et de la résilience du peuple ukrainien.
