“What is the least like music,” Zelensky asked the audience and he himself answered this question: “The silence of the destroyed cities and the silence of the dead people.” “Support us in any way, do not be silent, and then the world will come to our cities,” the President of Ukraine said.
After the video message of Zelensky, the American singer John Ledden, Ukrainian singer Mika Newton and poetess Lyuba Yakimchuk, as well as other Ukrainian performers, performed before the audience.
