Nurten and Uğur Tatlıcı made donations to the “Humanitarian Aid for Ukraine” campaign organized by the International Committee of the Red Cross, an international aid organization, to meet the health, shelter, protection, food, and hygiene needs of the civilians in Ukraine, which was adversely affected by the war.

We support victims of war in Ukraine

Regarding the donation, “My late father Salih Tatlıcı used to say that there is no problem that cannot be solved through dialogue and persuasion. Unfortunately, the ongoing tension between Ukraine and Russia turned into a war. Once again, humanity is being tested by the destruction, pain, and loss of the war. Civil settlements have turned into battlefields in this crisis, which the international community has been watching helplessly before the pain of similar ones has not subsided yet. Civilians, children, women, the elderly, and people with disabilities are trying to hold on to life in cold and troubled conditions in shelters and underground metro stations in fear and panic. According to what we learned from the media, people in big cities are experiencing great difficulties in emergency health, shelter, protection, food, and hygiene services and materials. We lend supportto the aid campaign organized by the International Committee of the Red Cross to help it continue providing much-needed medical and humanitarian aid in Ukraine. On this occasion, we wish that diplomatic efforts to restore peace will be concluded as soon as possible, that the war will end, and peace will come,” Uğur Tatlıcı said.
