Berlin continued its wave of support for Ukraine on the anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion of its western neighbor, with a demonstration at the capital's international film festival, the Berlinale. The planned solidarity action brought together about 50 invited guests on the red carpet with several celebrities holding up signs in the colors of Ukraine's flag saying "Stand with Ukraine." In addition to the two Berlinale heads Mariette Rissenbeek and Carlo Chatrian, this year's jury president, U.S. actress Kristen Stewart, and other jury members participated in the event.
