President Volodymyr Zelensky addressed Ukrainians on the 31st Independence Day of our country. He emphasized that despite the war started by Russia, we still remain independent.
“We meet this day in different places. Someone is in trenches and dugouts, in tanks and BMP, at sea and in the air. He is fighting for independence on the front lines. Someone is on the road, in cars, trucks and trains. He fights for independence, delivering what is necessary to those on the front lines. And someone is on a smartphone or at a computer. And he also fights for independence – collecting funds so that those on the road have something to bring to those on the front lines. We meet this day in different circumstances, conditions and even in different time zones, but with the sole goal of preserving the independence and victory of Ukraine!” Zelenskyy said.
