Mr. Oleh Protasov, who was enrolled in Gamba Osaka from 1994 to 1995 and is currently the first vice president of the Ukrainian Association of Football and is working on the development of Ukrainian football, has requested a report on the current situation in Ukraine. Therefore, I would like to report to all the fans and supporters as follows.
◆ Comment from Mr. Oleh Protasov
“Greetings to all the fans and supporters of Gamba Osaka. I always warmly remember the two years I spent in Japan (1994-95). Now, my country, Ukraine, is having a very difficult time. Russia, my brother’s country, is now a hateful enemy, Russian troops have begun to attack my country, bombed the town, and many civilians (children, women, old people, etc.) have died. I am at the beginning of the war. Immediately following, I was in the very center of the attack on the outskirts of Kyiv, but I was able to evacuate to Ribiu. It is calm for now. And I hope that peaceful and peaceful days will come back to our country in everyday life. Oleg Protasov, First Vice President of the Ukrainian Football Association. “
