I received a Christmas card from Ukraine a few days ago. Beyond the traditional motifs one expects to find, I noticed that behind the central motif is the figure of a soldier in combat gear.
It is sad and has a very special meaning, this presence on a Christmas card.
Let’s hope that the postal iconography of next Christmas will no longer include this theme.

I agree that we can only hope it’s not a Christmas motif next year, and also that next years XMas cards from the Ukraine won’t show Putin!!
Слава Україні!

Let’s hope it’s just a historical postcard and that the soldier doesn’t reappear in 2026.
