Ukraine's Ambassador to Cebu: Sparking New Partnerships
Ukrainian Ambassador Yuliia Fediv's visit to Cebu in February 2023 has sparked excitement about potential partnerships between the province and Ukraine. Cebuano entrepreneur Curtis Vincent Go played a pivotal role in coordinating the visit and facilitating meetings with local officials and representatives from various sectors.
The visit, hosted by Go, reflects Ukraine's growing interest in expanding its engagement beyond Manila. It opened doors for potential collaboration in trade, culture, education, and people-to-people partnerships between Cebu and Ukraine. Go expressed gratitude for Ambassador Fediv's confidence in local partners and reaffirmed his commitment to fostering stronger ties between Cebu and Ukraine.
Go's advocacy for Ukraine stems from personal ties formed during his studies in London and the support received from Ukraine during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Embassy of Ukraine in the Philippines, established in 2024 with Yuliia Fediv as its first resident ambassador, has further strengthened diplomatic relations between the two countries.
Ambassador Fediv's visit to Cebu signals stronger ties between Ukraine and the province. With Go's efforts and the support of local officials and organizations, Cebu and Ukraine are poised to explore new opportunities in trade, culture, education, and people-to-people partnerships.
