Ukrainian President Zelenskyy’s Memorial Day Message to Americans
“On Memorial Day, Ukraine expresses its special gratitude to the United States and its people. We honor all generations of brave American men and women in uniform who defended liberty at home, in Europe, and all over the world.
When we think about the price that previous generations paid for our right to liberty today, we can only feel eternal gratitude and respect.
As a nation that understands the pain of loss, we know the true value of liberty won in defense of one's own homeland. America's heroes who responded to the call of duty demonstrated to the world what it means to stand up for what is right.
Throughout history and today, true commitment to peace, life, and liberty must always triumph over aggression and destruction. As we remember all generations' sacrifices, we renew our commitment to defending the same cause of good today.
And we thank all Americans who have supported us all along in our struggle for our cause. We will always remember their support and we will always be grateful.”
