August 26, 2018 (UKRINFORM) The
British Embassy in Ukraine has prepared a special video greeting in which
diplomats performed a Ukrainian dance to a sopilka on the central streets of
the Ukrainian capital. The Embassy published the video on its Facebook page. "The
British Embassy and Ambassador Judith Gough congratulate Ukrainians on
Independence Day and wish a peaceful and stable next year," the greeting
says. According to the diplomatic mission, British diplomats, as well as
thousands of Ukrainians, were bewildered a year ago by a dance performed by a
British serviceman after a parade on Khreshchatyk street. So this year the
embassy staff also decided to dance - a Ukrainian dance. The embassy noted that some diplomats had been engaged
in dancing since childhood, while for others it was a personal challenge, but
everyone was carefully preparing, rehearsing and dancing for the melody of a
sopilka from the song "Bitanga" by young Ukrainian singer Alina Pash.
The staff of the diplomatic mission thanked choreographers Varvara Doroshenko
and Kyrylo Motinov for arranging the dance and Olena Didyk for the costumes.
