Dear colleagues, combat sworn brothers!

I congratulate you on a significant national holiday – the Independence Day of Ukraine!

The 24th August is a symbolic day for everyone of us.

For more than thousand years, Ukrainians dreamed of freedom and fought for independence, which they gained in 1991.

Today, when a brutal and bloody war against kremlin’s invaders is ongoing in Ukraine, the future fate of sovereign, independent, democratic Ukraine depends on us.

We are fighting for our native land and freedom with those who starved Ukrainians, who killed them in camps and are now trying to repeat it. We give a worthy repulse to the invaders, bringing our Victory closer every day – the enemy is demoralized and exhausted, he will be destroyed and putin's regime will fall.

I am grateful to everyone for your patriotism, courage, heroism and self-sacrifice for the sake of protection of the national interests of our state. I am proud that I am in the same ranks with you!

Eternal memory and glory to all who died defending Ukraine. We will take revenge for every fallen Ukrainian and destroy all enemies of the State!

May this holiday, which embodies pride for the Ukrainian nation, give us all inspiration and strength in the name of our Victory! Our Flag will soon return to Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk.

Glory to Ukraine!
