From President Zelensky

38 years ago, a disaster occurred in Chernobyl. A radiation accident, the consequences of which went far beyond the borders of this region of ours, all of Ukraine, and even all of Europe. The world felt that catastrophe. But still it was localized. The unfolding of the catastrophe was stopped - stopped thanks to the fact that the cowardice of our people did not happen, the indifference of Ukrainians did not happen.

People saved Ukraine in the 22nd year, and Putin will lose only to people, to all our people. Any evil cannot stand against a brave people who do everything to protect life. This is exactly how our people are. We can do what would be impossible for many others in the world. We can make life win. And we must always remember that everyone's life depends on each person's personal choice and courageous actions.

We would now like to express our respect to all the people in Slavutych - to each and every one who preserved the courage and devotion to protecting life, which saved us all in 1986 and which helped Ukraine in the spring of 22. Slavutych did not submit to the occupiers. Showed his character. Fought He defended himself. And we saw you in this square. We saw the heroism of those of our people who worked in shifts at the station during the russian occupation. All this helped our entire state to stop the unfolding of the disaster brought by the russian army.

Thank you to all those who protected life 38 years ago! Thank you to everyone who stood up to the enemy in the 22nd year! We are proud of everyone who is fighting for Ukraine and life now and will definitely win.
