Dear Ukrainians, colleagues and sworn brothers!

The 25^th of March is a significant date in the history of the Security Service of Ukraine. On this symbolic day, we not only look at our achievements, but also set new goals.

Today, our main aim is to defeat the enemy. There is no more important task than to protect our citizens and liberate Ukraine from russian occupiers.

We are fighting for the right to be Ukrainians and to choose our own destiny.

For over two years now, the SSU has been hitting the enemy at its most sensitive spots – the Crimean Bridge, warships in the Black Sea, tanks, electronic warfare and air defence systems, oil refineries and other facilities working for russia’s military-industrial complex. All these are our legitimate targets because they bring the war to Ukrainian soil. And the SSU always keeps its word and fulfils its promises: ‘bavovna’ always blows up even where it is least expected.

During this time, the Service has found many unique technological solutions. They help us to act quickly and accurately, even in the enemy’s deep rear.

We conduct special operations on land and at sea, covering hundreds of miles, bring war criminals to justice, repel cyber attacks, detain enemy agents and traitors.

We do our best to make the invaders realize that on our land they are doomed, and that retribution for all their crimes and every life destroyed is inevitable.

Ukrainians are a nation of brave warriors who have been defending their land for centuries, even at the cost of their lives. But no death will be in vain. Ukraine’s best sons and daughters will continue to fight until our Victory!

We must win this great battle! Because the ability to win is in our genetic code. For our children to build a new life - in their free and independent state.

Glory to Ukraine!

Yours sincerely,

Head of the Security Service of Ukraine

Lieutenant General Vasyl MALIUK
