On December 15, the Supreme Court of Ukraine celebrated the 105th anniversary of its establishment and the 5th anniversary of the reorganized court. Many European Supreme Courts sent video greetings to their colleagues.

President Aigars Strupišs, addressing Ukrainian colleagues on behalf of the Supreme Court of Latvia, said that “unfortunately, the celebration of this anniversary is taking place in the horrid conditions of the Russian Federation's aggression in Ukraine. We at the Supreme Court - each colleague and me personally - admire your courage, strength and determination in the fight with the aggressor.

There are no words to express our support for your country, because all words seem too shallow for the purpose. Thus, I just reaffirm that our hearts are with you in your just fight and your work in safeguarding justice in these circumstances. I truly and with all my heart wish that the 106th anniversary is celebrated in peace in the victorious and liberated Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine!"
