We stand in solidarity with those who oppose military aggression and seek peace 

　The YMCA of Japan recognizes its historical responsibility in World War II and pledges in the “YMCA ofJapan Basic Principles” to work together with the people of the world to achieve peace.
　With regard to the recent invasion of Ukraine by Russia, we strongly oppose military aggression andhope that war will not be the solution to international disagreements, but that a diplomaticsolution throughdialogue and cooperation will be found and that the armed conflict will end as soon as possible. 
War destroys in an instant the cities where people live their daily lives, soldiers of both countries takeeach other’s lives, and many citizens, including children in Ukraine, aredeprived of their human rights anddignity of life. If the war continues, more blood will be spilled and more innocent lives will be taken.
Their families, friends, acquaintances, and our tears of grief multiply tens of thousands of times. Ourthoughts are with the people of Ukraine, who are in a state of fear and anxiety at thismoment.
　The YMCA of Ukraine has been working for young people suffering from war since World War I. Sincethen, under the control of the Communist Party, the YMCA has been working behind the scenes tosupport young people and children suffering from ethnic conflict and poverty in 25 locations throughoutUkraine. Both the YMCA of Ukraine and the YMCA of Russia are members of the YMCA Europe,whichhas a complex history.
　They are focusing on Youth Led Solutions, which seek peace and justice, build peace through dialoguebased on human rights and democracy, and seek solutions to youth issues through youngpeople’semployment and mental health.
　Immediately after the invasion, the YMCA of Ukraine began providing accommodation, food, clothing,and hygiene products for those fleeing the bombed areas, and will continue to providepsychosocialsupport for children and youth. YMCAs in Ukraine’s neighboring countries cooperate with each other toreceive displaced people and provide livelihood support 24 hours a day.
　There have been demonstrations against the war in Russia, but under the current political system it isdifficult to have much power, however YMCAs around the world stand in solidarity with allthose who wantpeace. The YMCA in Japan will immediately call for fundraising activities and support these activities.
　In order to prevent human rights and democracy from being threatened in the world and in Asia, wepray for peace even if we are powerless, and hope that we can show our solidarity and actionwith thosewho seek peace by raising our voices against war and that there will be no peace by force as our dailydesire for peace.
　In addition, people in Japan who have close relations with Ukraine and Russia, as well as internationalstudents at YMCA, members and their families may be greatly affected. The YMCA will takenecessarymeasures such as providing support to the people concerned, and strive to prevent prejudice anddiscrimination.

広島ＹＭＣＡは、ロシア軍がウクライナに対して行った武力侵攻に対して強く抗議します。
　２月２４日、ロシアのウラジミール・プーチン大統領は、ウクライナが欧州連合（EU）や北大西洋条約機構（NATO）に入ろうとする動きに反発し、「自国の安全を守るため」という理由で民主国家であるウクライナに武力侵攻しました。ロシア軍によるウクライナへの侵攻は、ウクライナの主権と領土を侵害する国際法違反であり、断じて許すことはできません。また、プーチン大統領は今回のウクライナ侵攻に関する演説の中で、「ロシアは核保有国である」ことを誇示しました。この行為は昨年１月に国連で発効した核兵器禁止条約の精神を踏みにじるものであり、被爆地広島にあるＹＭＣＡとして、断じて許すことはできません。
　私たちは恐怖と不安の中にあるウクライナの人々に、一日も早く心の平安が訪れることを願い、祈りを捧げ、ロシアの武力侵攻に反対している世界中の人々とともに、ロシア軍のウクライナからの即時撤退を強く求めます。

Hiroshima YMCA strongly protests against the armed invasion of Ukraine by Russian forces. 
【English】
　On 24 February, Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded the democratic country of Ukraine inresponse to Ukraine's attempts to join the European Union (EU)and North Atlantic Treaty Organisation(NATO) and to "protect its security". The Russian military invaded Ukraine to "protect its security". Theinvasion of Ukraine by Russian forces is aviolation of international law and cannot be tolerated. In hisspeech on the invasion of Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin boasted that "Russia is a nuclearpower". As a YMCA in theA-bombed city of Hiroshima, we cannot allow this act to undermine the spirit ofthe Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons that came into force at the United Nations last January.
　We hope and pray that the people of Ukraine, who are in the midst of fear and uncertainty, will soon findpeace of mind, and we join with people around theworld who are opposed to Russia's armed aggressionin urging the immediate withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine.
