Recognizing the Role of Women in the Defense of Ukraine and Their Contribution to the Fight for Freedom
March 8 is International Women’s Rights Day. It is a day when the world acknowledges and honors their professionalism, strength, courage, and dedication.
The Resilience of Ukrainian Women in Times of Hardship
Today, in the most challenging times for Ukraine, women once again prove their resilience and immense contribution to our common struggle. The Ukrainian woman is a defender, a guardian of life, freedom, and truth. Women are a key part of the indomitable spirit of our people, who fight daily for the future for themselves, their families, and the entire country.
Women in Security and Defense Forces
Women are present in the Security and Defense Forces of our country, including the border service. I am sincerely grateful to my sisters in arms for the reliable protection of the state, unwavering resilience, patriotism, and responsibility in the ranks of the border family. You sacrifice family comfort, the warmth of your homes, and the embraces of your dearest people to stand in defense of the state.
We bow low to the mothers, wives, and daughters of the servicemen who laid down their lives for our freedom. Patience to all who await their loved ones from the front, captivity, or those whose fate is currently unknown. Your faith is another fortress holding our country together.
Dear women, please accept my sincerest greetings! I wish you all strength, endurance, and warmth. May your families be happy, and may Victory soon bring peace and tranquility to your hearts.
