President Volodymyr Zelensky met with representatives of scouting organizations who handed him the Light of Bethlehem. The head of the state expressed his gratitude and congratulated them on the upcoming Christmas.
According to the President's website, the attendees included members of the youth organization Plast - National Scout Organization of Ukraine, the all-Ukrainian youth NGO National Organization of Scouts of Ukraine, and the NGO Association of Guides of Ukraine.
The children said they help young people in frontline regions and keep in touch with young Ukrainians abroad. Scouting organizations also support our wounded soldiers. Over half a thousand more members of the Plast National Scout Organization of Ukraine have joined the Defense Forces.
They will later take the Light of Bethlehem to the frontline and hand it over to Ukrainian defenders.
