People all over the world are showing solidarity with Ukraine. The legendary animated family The Simpsons is no exception.
Los Angeles/Berlin – The creators of the cult animated series "The Simpsons" have shown solidarity with Ukraine without big words. In a picture posted to Twitter on Saturday, the serious-looking members of the cartoon family can be seen holding several Ukrainian flags.
The drawing is provided with the hashtags #TheSimpsons, #Simpsons and #Ukraine. After a few hours, the post garnered more than 145,000 likes.
