The Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Andriy Parubiy congratulated the Security Service of Ukraine on the 26th anniversary of its foundation.
Dear friends!
Today, we celebrate 26 years since the Security Service of Ukraine was established. It is important to always remember and understand its crucial role in the state’s life, as it is one of the fundamental institutes for security of the country and every citizen. A sovereign and free Ukraine is impossible without a powerful, highly professional Security Service.
The predecessor of the SBU is the Committee for the Defense of the Revolution in Ukraine, established by the Central Rada in 1917. The main task of the committee was to protect the state security of Ukraine. Historical origins of the modern Ukrainian Security Service rose a hundred years ago in the recent revival of Ukrainian statehood.
In a hybrid war, each of us feels how important, complex and necessary is the work of the SBU. And our Security Service responds to challenges and threats in time, defending the public interests reliably. I sincerely congratulate all employees of the Security Service of Ukraine on their professional holiday!
I wish all the employees and veterans of the Security Service of Ukraine a sound health and invincible spirit.
Glory to the Security Service of Ukraine!
Glory to Ukraine!
