In a video address on the occasion of Ukraine's Independence Day, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that no one in the world will ever say: "Where is Ukraine?" because every continent now says: "Ukraine must win", because today Ukraine is winning the hearts of the whole world and serves as an example of how not to be afraid of Putin, UNN reports.

"33 years ago, Ukraine was reborn on the world map, and today Ukraine wins the hearts of the world. It inspires courage. It serves as an example of how not to be afraid of Putin. And it unites the world around its Ukrainian worldview: in the twenty-first century, terrorists should be buried in The Hague, not Valdai. And no one in the world will say: "Where is Ukraine?" because every continent now says: "Ukraine must win". This energizes our independence. Our Ukraine. It does not lack other people's regions. We need peace and tranquility on our lands. Along our 6992 kilometers long border. On land, at sea, in the air, inside the country - wherever we will stand guard over our values," Zelensky said.
"Just like our soldiers do. In all directions of the frontline and the state border, which is symbolized by border pillars. And our will and struggle are symbolized by our people - our defenders, our pillars. Those on whose shoulders Ukraine rests. It is held together in Kharkiv, Kupiansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson region. In Pokrovsk, Toretsk, Chasovyi Yar. On the Lyman, Siverskyi, Kramatorsk, Kurakhiv, Vremivsk, Hulyaypillia, and Orikhiv directions. This is how independence is fought for. And I want to say to all our soldiers today: I wish you a strong one! And thank you, guys! When the need to defend Ukraine arose, you said a short word: plus. Since then, you have been "minus" the occupiers for 913 days in a row. Only you know how much effort, sweat, blood and your hard work is really behind the dry statistics on enemy losses. Only you know what it really means to hold a position. What it means to be "covered by enemy artillery and aircraft all day long". What it means to stand firm despite the fact that "the orcs are moving in". You have preserved and are preserving our independence," the President emphasized.
