On October 14, Ukrainians celebrate the Day of Defenders of Ukraine.
Today, this day has acquired great significance. Since the beginning of a new full-scale war with Russia, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians have been risking their lives every day to preserve the democratic values and territorial integrity of our state, as well as peace in Europe.
On this day, we honor everyone who stands on the guard of our state. Military, doctors, volunteers, rescuers, people of civilian professions who are connected with the defense of Ukraine are real heroes!
This day is special for every Ukrainian, every one of us. I would like to repeat "thank you" many times to every defender for giving us faith and defending the right to a free life and a bright future. Thank you that, despite the fear and anxiety that surrounds us every day, you changed your life for our freedom. Thank you for being behind you like a stone wall! Thank you for becoming a symbol of honor, will and courage for the whole world!
Eternal memory and honor to our fallen heroes. Glory to those who defend Ukraine now! Glory to our defenders!
