Give Peace a Chance!

We are absolutely appalled by the escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian Conflict as a result of the ongoing Russian invasion in Ukraine. We fully stand for peace and democracy. Our thoughts and solidarity are with the people of Ukraine and the victims of this horrible war. Therefore, we cannot stay silent and we painted the composer of our 6th edition – a Russian composer – with the blue Ukrainian sky. This should not be a contradiction. All humanity can live together in peace and harmony. Why are we not learning from our history?
