To the Armed Forces Soldiers and Veterans,
to all the Citizens of Ukraine
Please accept my sincere congratulations on the occasion of the National Holiday Defender of the Motherland Day
We have a good tradition to honour all people defending their native land, protecting its dignity and liberty on different stages of our country history, in the years of the Great Patriotic War, protecting peaceful work of the Ukrainian people. With peculiar tenderness and cordiality let us congratulate those who today continue self-devoting service to protect territorial integrity and immunity of our state, those who glorify Ukraine in the international peacemaking missions.
Today we commemorate all those who sacrificed their lives giving the most precision a human being have to provide the happiest future for their nation and country.
Ukrainian state will make everything possible to commemorate the heroes, grant the necessary conditions for the living of veterans and their social protection. The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine deems it the principal duty.
Sincerely wish you peace, wealth and well-being, success in your life and service.
Let the whole national love admiration inspires You for new success in the name of our Motherland!
Volodymyr LYTVYN
