No one else will ever dictate to Ukrainians which heroes to honor, which holidays to celebrate, or which history to study. Our ancestors fought for this right to freedom of choice and national independence for hundreds of years, and it is for this that our warriors are shedding blood today
According to him, the memory of Ukraine's defenders must be preserved for future generations.
We, our children, and all future generations must clearly know and honor those who dedicated their lives to the struggle for Ukraine. This is especially important today, when we are waging a war for the freedom of Ukraine
Budanov also welcomed the President's submission to the Verkhovna Rada of the draft law "On the Ukrainian National Pantheon," calling it an important step.
This is a decisive and much-needed step for restoring historical justice, consolidating our society, and laying the foundation of memory for future generations. This document is a testament to our state maturity
The head of the OP expressed hope that the parliament will promptly consider the document.
I am convinced that the Ukrainian parliament understands the importance of such an initiative and will consider and adopt this draft law as soon as possible
