Ghanaians living and schooling in Ukraine are shocked at the seeming silence of the Ghanaian government on their conditions in the country following the tensions.⁠

Dr. Araba Maame Arkoah, a medical doctor in Ukraine in an interview on Accra-based Starr FM said, “We are asking ourselves if the government of Ghana has not heard what is happening here?⁠

“We keep getting scared, we really need the help of government. As it stands now, we need to come home. I’m scared, very scared, everybody around me is scared.”⁠ She Lamented.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister of Boris Johnson has condemned the actions of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

As he pledged the UK’s support for Ukraine, Mr Johnson appeared to dismiss any notion of 1930s-style appeasement in dealing with the crisis.
“This is not, in the infamous phrase, some ‘faraway country of which we know little’,” he said, a reference to a speech by Neville Chamberlain in 1938 about the German annexation of the Sudetenland.
“We have Ukrainian friends in this country; neighbours, co-workers. Ukraine is a country that for decades has enjoyed freedom and democracy and the right to choose its own destiny.
“We and the world cannot allow that freedom just to be snubbed out. We cannot and will not just look away.”
