From March 5 to June 1, 2025, our students once again demonstrated their skills at the competition dedicated to the 125th anniversary of the birth of the outstanding writer and humanist Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. The competition entitled “Tu deviens responsable pour toujours de ce que tu as apprivoisé” (“You are forever responsible for what you have tamed”) was organized by the Department of Foreign Languages of the Professional Direction of the Odessa National University named after I.I. Mechnikov (Faculty of Russian Federation) with the support of a number of powerful partners: the Odessa Regional Organization of the National Union of Journalists of Ukraine, the Department of Theory and Practice of Translation from Romance Languages named after Mykola Zerov of the Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, and the Association of French Language Teachers of Ukraine.

This competition aimed not only to popularize the works of Exupéry and to instill in young people a sense of kindness and responsibility, but also to popularize the Ukrainian language through its interaction with the masterpieces of European literature. Another important task was the search for talented performers, readers, and experts in a foreign language.

We sincerely congratulate Anastasia Vasilyuk on her honorable 1st place!
