The world has woken to a war as Russia declares a military operation against neighbouring Ukraine, after diplomatic efforts have failed to stop the escalation between the two countries.
The Council of European Muslims (CEM) considers today’s military attack as a serious escalation that threatens civilians’ lives and the regional diplomatic ties on the other hand.
In this regard, the Council calls on all parties to restore calm and resume dialogue. It also calls on those who believe in peace to support all efforts to stop war before it is too late.
We express our solidarity with the civilians and the war’s victims.
We pray for the almighty to spread peace in Ukraine, Europe, and everywhere.
CEM, Brussels.
