The stability of the State of Israel is a source of inspiration for the Ukrainian nation, which has been suffering from russian aggression for 5 months. The First Lady of Ukraine, Olena Zelenska, told reporters after the end of the first training for Ukrainian psychologists, conducted by the Israeli organization NATAL Trauma and Resiliency Center.
