Wladimir Klitschko and Vitali Klitschko have sent a joint appeal to the world during the ongoing war against Russia. Russian forces have invaded Ukraine and here's what the Klitschko brothers had to say:
"I'm calling to all international partners to observe this tragedy that is happening nowadays in Ukraine. And this senseless war, which is not going to have any winners, but losers. I just want to tell you, we must stay united against this aggression, against Russian aggression. Don't let it happen, continue happening in Ukraine, don't let it happen in Europe, and eventually in the world."
