FULL SET STAMPS UKRAINE "KALUSH ORCHESTRA EUROVISION 2022" sheet+FDC cover KYIV

Description: full sheet + first day cover with maturity in Kyiv + envelope + postcard On May 15, the Ukrainian band Kalush Orchestra won the Eurovision Song Contest 2022 in Turin, Italy, with their track Stefania. Participation in the contest during the war has become especially important for Ukraine. "They want to destroy our culture, and we are here to show that it is alive," said the band's frontman Oleh Psyuk. During his performance at the Eurovision Song Contest, the leader of Kalush Orchestra appealed to the international community and called for the de-blockade of Mariupol. The Ukrainians' request to save Mariupol and Azovstal from the live stage caused a real sensation! The Eurovision organizers could have disqualified the contestants and fined them for making political statements. But the musicians did what the whole of Ukraine expected of them, what was important to them. The show's founders also perceived Kalush Orchestra's statement as a humanitarian one, and our country won by a majority of votes. On the Eurovision stage, Oleh Psyuk performed in an early twentieth-century Bukovyna cap and his signature pink panama hat, which was sold for UAH 11 million at a charity auction for the Armed Forces of Ukraine after the contest. All products are original. I send the stamps in an envelope between cardboard sheets so that the stamps do not wrinkle Thank you so very much for your interest and if you have any questions or please feel free to message me!
