President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy congratulated Ukrainian defenders on the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The president also honored the fallen soldiers at the memorial to those who died for Ukraine in Kyiv.
Congratulations from Zelenskyy on the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
December 6. Seven in the morning. Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Day of the strong. Day of the brave. Day of the unbreakable. Men and women. Warriors. Heroes. All those who continue to defend the state. And all those who gave their lives not to give Ukraine away. And right now I am going to the Wall of their Remembrance [of the Fallen for Ukraine — Ed.]. Many know where it is, many have been there. Well, those who haven't been yet should go. To see the faces of our heroes.
And now I'm walking around the capital of our beautiful state, not someone's province as part of someone's empire. I am leaving the Office of the President of Ukraine, not someone else's Gauleiter. Ahead of us is the European Square, where our flags are blue and yellow, not tricolor. Ahead is the Volodymyr hill. In honor of our great prince, not their petty king.
Zelenskyy reminded that Saint Nicholas would come to those who behaved well, and to those who acted worthlessly, the AFU would come, who are the creators of justice.
We are strong. We are the wall. We are standing. To protect our land. To protect our people. To win. Glory to all our soldiers, glory to our Armed Forces!
The December 6 is the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine
On December 6, Ukraine celebrates the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
