We are not angels. But hell doesn't belong here. Our "Mriya" flies to the sky so that God can see our dream, - Speech of the President on the occasion of the Independence Day of Ukraine

We are all children of Ukraine, regardless of language, religion and nationality, and no one can be given a chance to sow discord between us, as stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a speech at the celebrations of the 29th anniversary of independence.

“I also think every mother wants her children not to quarrel. So, maybe children should stop competing who loves their mother more and more correctly? Ukraine dreams of us being united and cohesive. And we can definitely make such a gift to it,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

Speech of the President on the occasion of the Independence Day of Ukraine was published by official website of President Zelenskyy.

“We must remember that, regardless of language, religion, nationality, we are brothers and sisters. We are all children of Ukraine. And we should not give anyone a chance to sow discord between us. To neither neighbors nor internal strangers. Those who have been robbing our mother Ukraine for many years, because they never considered it home,” the Head of State emphasized.

The President sadly stated that now part of the territory of Ukraine is occupied. However, he noted, the authorities are doing everything possible to return these lands under the blue-yellow flag.


Dear Ukrainians!

I always call on all of us to be united.

I believe that it cannot be otherwise. You know, I recently caught myself thinking - we have a lot in common, and there is unity even in our contradictions.

We are different. But equal. We are different. But we are kindred.

We speak different languages to understand each other without words. We are of different faiths, but we all believe in Ukraine.

They wanted to divide us, and we multiply despite.

We are not angels. But hell doesn't belong here.

We want silence that all of Ukraine will hear!

We are from the area where we do care.

We stand our ground because we are moving forward.

We can sometimes drink a bit "bitter", when it is not sweet in the soul.

We smile about sad things. We cry with joy.

Our "Mriya" flies to the sky so that God can see our dream.

We put the right hand to the heart to overcome the problems with the left one. We are Ukrainians. Look in the mirror and you will see all of us there.

This is us.

Independent. But it all depends on us.

Congratulations to you, fellow countrymen!

Happy Independence Day of Ukraine!

Glory to Ukraine!
