History

In 1918–1926, the Extraordinary Diplomatic Mission of the Ukrainian People's Republic operated in Bern. It began its work in August 1918 under Hetman P. Skoropadskyi, and from the end of November 1918 represented the interests of the government of the UPR Directory.

The first head of the Ukrainian mission was Yevhen Lukasevych (until early September 1919), and he was succeeded by Mykola Vasylko, who headed it until August 1923. After the latter's transfer as ambassador to Germany, Consul General Zenon Kurbas acted as its head from August 1923 until the mission was liquidated in 1926.

In 1999, the archival documents of the Mission were transferred to Ukraine.

In 2001, on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Ukraine's independence, a plaque in honor of the Mission's activities was installed on the building of the Embassy of Ukraine in Bern.

After the restoration of Ukraine's independence, the Embassy of Ukraine in Switzerland was opened in February 1993.[4]
