Lero Europe Day ikukondwerera ku Brussels, ku Strasbourg komanso ku European Union. Ndi tsiku lokumbukira mbiri yakale ya Schuman Declaration, mu 1950, yomwe inakhazikitsa masomphenya a mgwirizano watsopano ku Ulaya. Ndipo lero ndinabwera kudzakondwerera Tsiku la Ulaya mumphika wosungunuka wa chikhalidwe cha ku Ulaya ndi mbiri yakale: Odesa, mzinda umene Pushkin adanena kuti "mukhoza kumva ku Ulaya". Pomwe pano, kumene anthu a ku Odesa amateteza zipilala zawo ku zipolopolo ndi maroketi, monga momwe aku Ukraine akutetezera ufulu wawo ku ziwawa za ku Russia.
Pa May 9th 1950, zaka zisanu pambuyo pa kutha kwa Nkhondo Yachiwiri Yadziko Lonse, Robert Schuman ananena motchuka kuti, 'Ku Ulaya sikunapangidwe, tinali ndi nkhondo.' Chifukwa chake kuti awonetsetse mtendere, Schuman ndi ochepa omwe amawona masomphenya adayamba kumanga European Union. Ndipo kuyambira pamenepo, mtendere wakhala ukulamulira kumene mayiko anamenyana kwa zaka mazana ambiri.
Pamene tikulankhula, nkhondo ikuyambiranso ku Ulaya. Nkhondo yochokera m’zaka za zana lina, nkhondo yaikulu kumene dziko lina, Russia, lalanda dziko lodzilamulira loyandikana nalo, Ukraine. Kumene masukulu anu, zipatala ndi mizinda zimaphulitsidwa ndi bomba. Kumene anthu anu amazunzidwa, kugwiriridwa ndi kuphedwa m'magazi ozizira. Koma komanso kumene anthu anu akutsutsa molimba mtima, monga kamnyamata kakang'ono kamene ndinakumana naye masabata angapo apitawo ku Borodyanka. Anandiuza mmene anachitira nkhanza zimene anaona pamene mzinda wawo unalandidwa ndi asilikali a ku Russia.
Kremlin ikufuna "kuchita" mzimu wanu waufulu ndi demokalase. Koma ndikukhulupirira kotheratu kuti sadzapambana. Ndabwera ku Odesa pa Tsiku la Europe ndi uthenga umodzi wosavuta: Simuli nokha. Ife timayima ndi inu. Sitidzakukhumudwitsani. Tidzakhala nanu kwa nthawi yonse yomwe zimatenga.
Ndipo tidzakuthandizani kumanga dziko lamakono, lademokalase. Dziko loyang'ana kutsogolo, lokonzeka kukumbatira molimba mtima tsogolo lanu la ku Europe, tsogolo lathu limodzi ku Europe, malo anu m'banja lathu wamba la ku Europe. Ndilinso ndi uthenga kwa nzika zinzanga kudutsa European Union: Mtendere wathu, kutukuka kwathu, tsogolo la ana athu - nawonso ali pachiwopsezo kuno ku Odessa. Kuno ku Ukraine.
Slava Ukraine.
