Congratulations to our defenders!

The one supreme value that equalizes the rich and the poor, children and the elderly, people of all races and religions, is life itself. It doesn’t matter what we do or how much we earn. Today, Ukrainians are filled with gratitude for every defender of our country, both men and women.

Thank you, our guardians, for allowing us to still walk on our land, hear the laughter of our children, and see the sun above our heads. Thank you for our lives.

May your noble mission and our unbreakable unity strengthen your spirit, give you the power to fight, and instill confidence in our victory!

We will always remember each person who gave their life for ours. We will remember and deeply honor them. There’s a saying: war takes the best among us. But their children, mothers, and fathers remain. We have preserved our Ukraine. We will cherish this greatest legacy, whose worth is beyond measure.

We are grateful to our Armed Forces—we believe in them, we serve alongside them, and we support them! Glory to the Defenders and Defendresses of Ukraine!
