To the Organizers, Attendants and Guests of the Evening
dedicated to the 90th Anniversary of Birth of Oles´ Honchar
Dear Friends!
A writer and a citizen, a war veteran and ardent fighter for peace, Oles´ Honchar has never been indifferent to the historic fortune of Ukraine, to its tragic past. He was one of the founders of Ukraine´s statehood, and is justly regarded as one of those glorious historical figures who fought for and asserted State independence.
Oles´ Honchar would have been 90 years old. He was a person infinitely amorous of life and Ukraine. One needs time to comprehend his renown.
Let us remember Oles´ Honchar.
Let your hearts be always filled with respect for glorious sons of our history.
I wish you peace, welfare and every happiness.
Arseniy Yatseniuk
