Joint letter of the Ministers of Culture of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland concerning the position of ICCROM on the Russian Federation’s military aggression against Ukraine and destruction of the Ukrainian cultural heritage March , 2022 Mr. Webber Ndoro Director-General International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM) Mr. John Robbins Chairperson of the Council of the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property (ICCROM) Cc: Mr. Peter Keller Director-General International Council of Museums (ICOM) Ms. Marie-Laure Lavenir Director-General International Council of Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) Mr. Bruno Oberle Director-General International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Ms. Audrey Azoulay Director-General United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization Mr. Dario Franceschini Minister of Cultural Heritage, Cultural Activities and Tourism of the Republic of Italy Ms. Alessandra Marino Director Central Institute of Restoration Your Excellencies, For the fifth week the Russian military forces continue to carry out ground and air attacks on Ukrainian cities, towns and villages, using also prohibited non-conventional weapons and deliberately bombing civilian objects such as apartment buildings, schools, kindergartens, hospitals, cultural and communication infrastructure and other public facilities. Many civilians in Ukraine, hiding in bombshelters, are now cut off from necessary supplies and services – electricity, heating, water, food, medicines and access to medical emergency. The numbers of dead and injured civilians, as well as of refugees and internally displaced persons are growing rapidly every day.  In addition to the massive human suffering, the Russian military forces attack, threaten to attack or otherwise damage Ukrainian cultural and cultural heritage properties, such as art galleries and museums, monuments, cultural and natural sites, including its World Heritage sites, and other landmarks. For example, the Babyn Yar Holocaust Memorial in Kyiv was damaged, the Mariupol Theatre intentionally bombed and the Ivankiv Historical and Local History Museum in Kyiv region was burned down. The historic centre of Chernihiv, which is on Ukraine’s Tentative List of World Heritage Sites, was damaged. All this demonstrates that the Russian Federation disregards its obligations assumed under UNESCO Constitution and Conventions, including the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict. The Russian Federation’s military aggression against independent and sovereign Ukraine and its continuing deliberate attacks on the Ukrainian cultural heritage contradict the mission, vision and values of ICCROM, the organisation which was established in the aftermath of the Second World War in order to preserve, protect and restore what humanity had destroyed. One of the ICCROM’s main objectives – to protect cultural heritage in times of crises, today calls for immediate action As Member States of ICCROM, we urge ICCROM to take a clear stance on the Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine and destruction of the Ukrainian cultural heritage. We request you to: - publicly condemn the Russian Federation’s military aggression against Ukraine and its people and agressor’s attacks on the Ukrainian cultural heritage; - suspend participation of the Russian Federation in the proceedings, work, programmes and projects within the framework of the ICCROM as well as its working bodies; - take actions for providing financial and technical support, and further international assistance to Ukraine within the mandate of ICCROM; - report to the ICCROM Member States on planned actions and convene, if necessary to achieve the above, an extraordinary session of the ICCROM General Assembly. Sincerely yours, Mr. Tiit Terik Minister of Culture of the Republic of Estonia Mr. Nauris Puntulis Minister of Culture of the Republic of Latvia Mr. Simonas Kairys Minister of Culture of the Republic of Lithuania Mr. Piotr Gliński Deputy Prime Minister, Minister for Culture and National Heritage of the Republic of Poland  DETALŪS METADUOMENYS Lietuvos Respublikos kultūros ministerija, Dokumento sudarytojas (-ai) J.Basanavičiaus g. 5, LT-01118 Vilnius, Lietuva (2022- 03-29 14:17:17) Joint letter of the Ministers of Culture of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland concerning the position of Dokumento pavadinimas (antraštė) ICCROM on the Russian Federation’s military aggression against Ukraine and destruction of the Ukrainian cultural heritage Dokumento registracijos data ir numeris 2022-03-29 Nr.
