You gave the grounds to be proud of country, to appreciate and respect it, – Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine underscored.

– Сьогодні нам потрібна рішучість, сьогодні ми не повинні дати бандитам і бойовикам зупинитися і зачепитися за жодний клаптик української землі. Ми все зробимо, щоб швидше звільнити Україну від окупації. Наша з вами почесна місія – захистити жінок, дітей, мирну працю українців. Інколи це буває нелегко, але день від дня Україна народжує нові Збройні Сили. Я сьогодні маю всі підстави пишатися вами. Дякую вам за це! – сказав у заключному слові Президент України.
