Latvia issued a stamp on 10th March in support of Ukraine in response to the Russian invasion.

Latvian stamp designer Girts Griva designed the stamp which comes with the denomination of euro and depicts ribbons in the colors of the two nation’s flags: blue and yellow for Ukraine and red and white for Latvia.

In addition to the flaglike ribbons, the design includes the inscription “We Are with You” in Latvian and Ukrainian in the upper right. The 2022 year date and the name of the designer are in the lower left.

The stamp is sold in a souvenir sheet of three stamps and a label for Euro 9, with 50 percent of the proceeds going to the Ukrainian charity organization.
