"Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace”

This unjustified war against Ukraine is crazy. As a father myself it enormously worries me how the families are doing there. To help the people of Ukraine who lost their homes and had to leave their families behind, we founded Athletes for Ukraine to support the people of Ukraine. Please support us to help all the people there who are doing so badly right now.

War is the opposite of what sports are: Joy, dignity, respect, trust, team spirit and thinking beyond borders, prejudice and barriers. Sports generate working together respectfully, war only knows working against one another until there is no winner left. As a human and as a professional cyclist, I would like to use my network to show the people of the Ukraine that I support them and my thoughts are with them.

Stop this war !!!!
It seams to be far but the war is only 700km away from us. We live in a place with peace and democracy, a place with freedom, with infrastructure, economy, school, healthcare, hospitals, work, grocery stores, flowing water, electricity… the Ukrainian lost all this and that’s why I want to help to get this life back for them!

Let’s go to peace. We’re more than you think, we’re sleeping giants, but we’re getting up now. Let them say we’re dreamers, in the end we’ll win. We won’t let this world go down, come on, let’s go to peace. (by Udo Lindenberg)

Imposing war, death and destruction on others can never be the right thing. Trying to change another’s society with the use of violence and brutality cannot be accepted. Not in Ukraine, nor in any of the other multitude of countries whose people are being forced to live through a hell on Earth because of war.
