The National Bank of Ukraine has issued a new commemorative coin "New Year's Toy". Today, it was presented by NBU Governor Andriy Pyshnyi, UNN reports with reference to the NBU.
"The most cherished dream of each of us is that Ukraine's defenders will be able to return home to their families and friends. And we will do everything in our power to achieve this, going this way step by step, making the necessary decisions, working under any conditions. On the new coin, we have also symbolically depicted the military, to whom we are grateful every day. We are waiting for their return and want them to be with us. With this coin, we pay them honor and respect," emphasized Andriy Pyshnyi.
