A postage stamp to support Ukraine will be released for sale

This Thursday, 24 March, Omniva will start selling the postage stamp issued in support of Ukraine. A postcard with a similar design will be given for free with all purchases of the stamp.
 
The ‘Glory to Ukraine!’ postage stamp, which will be released exactly one month after the start of the war in Ukraine, is Estonia’s symbolic show of support to the state and people of Ukraine in defending their independence. The postage stamp carries a message of peace that is symbolised by a dove of peace. Now, it can be spread by people around the world. With the postage stamp, you can express support for ending the war and for the independence of Ukraine.
 
The postage stamp depicts a dove of peace against the background of the colours of the Ukrainian flag. The stamp features the text ‘Слава Україні!’ in Ukrainian, which means ‘Glory to Ukraine!’, and ‘Eesti toetab Ukrainat’ (Estonia supports Ukraine) in Estonian. ‘Glory to Ukraine!’ (Slava Ukraini) is the national greeting of Ukraine, known as a symbol of Ukrainian sovereignty and resistance. It has been used as the official greeting of the Ukrainian armed forces since 2018.
 
The edition size of the postage stamp is 50,000 and its nominal price is 1.90 euros, meaning it can be sent around the world. The design of the postage stamp was created in cooperation with the advertising agency Utopia and the stamps were printed by the printing house Vaba Maa. The postage stamp and the first-day cover will be sold in Omniva’s e-shop and in post offices all over Estonia. The first day stamp will be used at the Toompea post office at 4 Lossi plats, Tallinn.
