Dear compatriots,
I congratulate you on the Day of the National Flag of Ukraine. This day is dedicated to one of the most important symbols of Ukraine as the flag signifies the fight for our independence.
This is a symbol of the millennial building of the state of Ukraine.
Today our state flags are again seen in the frontline where Ukrainian soldiers fight against the Russian occupants. I want to thank them for their proud protection of the state flag.
I call on all Ukrainians living in all regions of Ukraine and all over the world to raise Ukrainian flags on their houses to commemorate all the Ukrainian soldiers killed while protecting Ukraine.
