Shakhtar Calls on Barcelona: Urges Players to Speak Out Against Aggressor Country’s Actions

Shakhtar turned to Barcelona and personally to Sergi Roberto and Alejandro Balde, who recorded a video message to the fans of the aggressor country.

While our military is undergoing rehabilitation in Barcelona, ​​Barcelona players Sergi Roberto and Alejandro Balde are recording a video message to the fans of a country that is now killing Ukrainians, killing children, destroying our cities, the club said in a tweet.

Not a single victory, not hundreds of T-shirts sold, is worth a human life. The pictures show two Ukrainian soldiers Vitaliy Shumey and Bogdan Kush, who were seriously injured as a result of Russian aggression and are being treated in Barcelona.

Shakhtar also addressed a question to the leader of Barcelona, ​​Polish striker Robert Lewandowski – Do you think this situation is normal, Robert Lewandowski? You, as the captain of the Polish national team, a country that helps Ukraine a lot, understand the scale of the tragedy and the absurdity of such an act.
