History
Before 1991, both Croatia and Ukraine were part of multinational socialist states, SFR Yugoslavia and Soviet Union. Croatia declared independence from Yugoslavia on 25 June 1991, but considering a three-month moratorium on the decision urged by the European Community, it put into effect on 8 October 1991. Ukraine proclaimed independence from the Soviet Union on 24 August 1991 and recognized Croatia on 11 December 1991 as the first United Nations member state which did it.[2] Diplomatic relations between two countries were established on 18 February 1992.[3]
Holodomor was recognized as genocide of the Ukrainian people by the Government of Croatia on June 15, 2023[4] with the Croatian Parliament adopting a declaration about the recognition on June 28, 2023.[5]

Croatia strives to meet the needs of the minorities and promote friendly ties between the two nations, having a central library in Zagreb since 1995, a cathedra for Ukrainian language and literature at the University of Zagreb since 2001, and classes provided in the Ukrainian language.[7] Various dates of importance to Ukrainian history, holidays and manifestations are commemorated every year.[8]
