The initiative will give priority to cultural heritage sites and collections “directly affected by the Russian war.”

It is known that as of mid-February, there were 1,200 cultural heritage sites in Ukraine that were destroyed or partially damaged. Of these, 500 objects are monuments of culture and history. There is no exact calculation of losses, but the Ministry estimates them in the range of 3-5 billion dollars.
