Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "In Santiago, I was pleased to meet in person with Senator Rojo Edwards and decorate him with Ukraine’s Order of Merit, Third Grade, awarded by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. 

This is a sign of Ukraine’s gratitude and recognition of the Senator’s significant personal contribution to raising awareness in Chile and throughout Latin America about Ukraine and the shared values we are defending. 

I personally thanked Senator Rojo Edwards for his principled stance, uncompromising defense of international law and freedom, and his brave visits to Ukraine during Russia’s full-scale war. 

Having such friends with big hearts, we have the feeling that we are not alone. I  confident that our cooperation forms a solid basis for further developing the bilateral relations between Ukraine and Chile."
