«I hope that my experience working on an international committee and in parliamentary diplomacy will help me effectively represent the Foundation’s interests and promote its humanitarian initiatives abroad. The Leo Tolstoy International Peace Prize reflects not only a humanistic tradition but also the need for a new international agenda based on dialogue, justice, and the rejection of coercion».

«A peaceful future requires not only major political decisions, but also daily efforts to rebuild trust. The Leo Tolstoy International Peace Prize reminds us that cultural heritage and humanitarian values have become reliable tools for building sustainable peace. It is my duty to make them accessible and understandable to everyone».

«My decision to become the Leo Tolstoy International Peace Prize ambassador stems not from a sense of duty so much as from a calling of the heart. For me, this means sharing hope with those who have lost it, listening to voices that were unheard, and consciously choosing humanity every day».

«The Foundation's mission has a global, life-affirming purpose for all peoples of our planet, regardless of their national or religious affiliation. To be an ambassador for such a foundation is not only a great honor, but also an immense joy to be part of goodness in action».

«We are proud of our colleagues who served on the diplomatic front. They contributed to the establishment of the anti-Hitler coalition, tirelessly pressed for the opening of the Second Front, and made a significant contribution to the post-war settlement».
