Ivan Bakanov congratulates on Independence Day of Ukraine

The Independence Day is a great occasion to show your love for Ukraine once again. Ukraine is a unique country. It is young, but at the same time it has a thousand-year history. Peaceful, but has been defending its borders from enemies for hundreds of years. Ukraine is so diverse, but it is united in its common desire to build a state in which everyone would live comfortably - from a child to a pensioner.

And this is the most important thing. We can discuss a lot inside the country, but we have to be united. We should not cede any territories, sacrifice any human life or national code. Because we, Ukrainians, know how to truly love our land, where the sky and fields merge into a beautiful, unique blue-yellow flag.

The Independence Day is a moment of truth, when each of us becomes acutely aware of his own responsibility for the country.

And we, like no one else, know the true price of Independence. We know how to defend our state, conquer our cities and honor the memory of our Heroes who gave their lives for the Motherland.

The Security Service of Ukraine has a special duty - to protect and prevent threats, to make sure that people are not afraid to live their normal lives.

We want every citizen to be sure that the state will protect him under any circumstances. This is the mission of the SBU. And so it will be in the future!

I wish you and your families unity, peace and prosperity!

Glory to Ukraine!



Sincerely

Head of the Security Service of Ukraine

Ivan Bakanov
