In the life of Ukrainian society, a fateful event occurred in which the aspiration of millions of our fellow citizens to live in their free and democratic state.

And although the recent Ukrainian state-building process was objectively difficult, Ukraine has achieved significant heights in all aspects of restoring its independence.

Powerful economy and industry, construction and transport, agro-industrial complex, cutting technology, culture, medicine and education, talented and ambitious youth and a people aspiring to live again, freed from the path of the totalitarian past.

But the obstacle was Russia's war against our country with its cynical occupation of Ukrainian territory, missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities and villages, deaths and destruction of peaceful homes, industrial and infrastructure facilities, hospitals, theaters, museums, schools and kindergartens, murders and abuses of civilians.

Congratulations to everyone on Independence Day, I wish each of you family Victory over the aggressor, peaceful skies, warm meetings with family and loved ones, happy arrival in free, prosperous Ukraine.
