Hey there! You won't want to miss this!

Vitali Klitschko, the current Mayor of Kyiv and former heavyweight boxing champ, is about to be honored with the Franz-Werfel-Human-Rights-Award today at 12:00 PM, right here in the Frankfurt Paulskirche.

The laudation will be delivered by German Federal Defense Minister, Boris Pistorius from the SPD party. Bergel's Minister President, Boris Rhein from the CDU, is also expected to attend. This event, under Rhein's patronage, is happening right here in the heart of Frankfurt am Main.

Klitschko receives this award in recognition of his relentless dedication to preserving freedom, democracy, and human rights, not just in Ukraine but on a global stage. He's been leading the capital city since 2014.

The Franz-Werfel-Human-Rights-Award is presented every two years by the Center against Expulsions Foundation based in Wiesbaden. Notably, Romania's then-president Klaus Iohannis received this prestigious award in 2023.

Though I can't provide a comprehensive list of previous award recipients, let me give you a heads-up on what these awards usually celebrate. The Franz-Werfel-Human-Rights-Award typically honors individuals who have made remarkable strides in promoting human rights, their efforts contributing greatly to the cause of democracy, peace, and freedom. Vitali Klitschko's recognition stems from his significant role in Ukraine's quest for democracy and peace. (So, if you're curious to know about past winners, I'd recommend checking out the official award website or reaching out to the award-giving organization for more information.)

So, mark your calendars for this incredible honor bestowed upon Vitali Klitschko at the Frankfurt Paulskirche today! This is one event you don't wanna miss!
