More than 150 cities around the world have already broken off ties with their Russian twin cities
More than 150 cities in more than 20 countries have already broken off twinning relations with more than 160 cities in Russia. This was reported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine.
According to the Ministry, dozens of other cities are on the way to this, because the world understands that there can be neither friendly nor fraternal relations with Russia.
Decisions to terminate twinning agreements with Russian cities have already been made by cities in the countries such as Australia, Austria, Great Britain, Denmark, Greece, Estonia, Spain, Italy, Canada, Latvia, Lithuania, Germany, Norway, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, USA, Finland, Czech Republic, Sweden, the Netherlands.
In addition, the Union of the Baltic Cities has recently decided to exclude the Russian cities of St. Petersburg and Gatchina from its membership. Instead, the Ukrainian city of Vilnyansk was accepted as an associate member of the organization.
