The memory of the soldiers of the nuclear front will remain in our hearts forever.

In the first hours, days and months, they selflessly went into nuclear fire to stop the chain reaction of death. They gave their lives and health to save us from a terrible accident.

Today we pay tribute to all the liquidators of the Chornobyl accident, who made a significant contribution to overcoming the consequences of the Chornobyl disaster and protected Ukraine and the world from the destructive effects of radiation. We are sincerely grateful to those who continue to work on the rehabilitation of contaminated areas.

Society will never forget your feat!

I wish you health, peace and prosperity!
