“I am writing to congratulate you and the entire SumDU community for achieving the #1 position in Ukraine in the recently released Times Higher Education World University Rankings. This recognition is a reflection of the hard work, determination, resilience and pursuit of excellence that you and your colleagues have demonstrated over many years. I knew SumDU was a very special place the first time I visited your campus. Though you and your colleagues continue to work under great peril given the current circumstances, I firmly believe SumDU will lead Ukraine’s knowledge economy as your country builds itself better and stronger. I wish you all continued success and all the best.”
