In addition, they sent traditional Ukrainian embroidered shirts to world leaders as a gift.

"On May 21, Ukraine celebrates Vyshyvanka Day – a holiday aimed to preserve and honor the ancient traditions of our people. Vyshyvanka is an original code of our ethnic group with signs and symbols encrypted in original ornaments. We sincerely want to share with you a piece of Ukrainian history and authenticity," Volodymyr Zelensky and Olena Zelensky wrote in a cover letter.
