EU and Ukrainian flags will be flown at the European Parliament’s three sites from Sunday 23 February to Tuesday 25 February, marking three years since Russia’s invasion.

Russia launched its unprovoked, unjustified and illegal attack against Ukraine on 24 February 2022.


Special set-ups of both EU and Ukraine flags will be flown in front of the EP SPAAK building in Brussels, the WEISS building in Strasbourg, and the ADENAUER building in Luxembourg, from Sunday 23 February at 16.00 until Tuesday 25 February at 9.00. On Tuesday 25 February by 11.00, a Ukrainian flag will be displayed next to the EU flag and the 27 EU member states flags, in the same spots in the three cities.
Also in Brussels, the Station Europe building will be illuminated with the colours of the yellow and blue Ukrainian flag on the evenings of Sunday 23 and Monday 24 February, from 19.00 to 1.00.


On February 11 2025 Parliament’s leadership issued a statement reiterating their “steadfast solidarity with the people of Ukraine, who continue to demonstrate extraordinary resilience and courage in defending their sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity”. MEPs are set to adopt a resolution on the EU’s continued and unwavering support for Ukraine during the next plenary session, on 12 March. The vote will wrap up a plenary debate held on 11 February.
