ANDRIY BILETSKY ON THE OCCASION OF THE INDEPENDENCE DAY OF UKRAINE

Friends and Comrades!

Today our state celebrating the 26th anniversary from the date of Independence from the USSR. Twenty-six years ago, the patriots managed to save our state from the knot of communism. It's no secret that then, in early 90's, Ukraine had held one of the leading positions in Europe and the World in the economic and industrial sectors. Considering the whole scientific potential of Ukrainians and the wealth of our land, it seemed then, that we had all chances to become one of the most developed states of Europe and the World. At least, to not share positions with all sorts of banana republics... There were 70 years of communist rule, 26 years of rule of their descendants-former Komsomols, but not a single year of a true statesman rule. This has resulted in complete lost of independence.

Today we are fighting for real Independence. We are fighting corruption that сorrodes us from the inside. We are struggling with the aggressor who took our Crimea, half of the Donbass and the lives of thousands of Ukrainian patriots. We are fighting for our land and banal survival. For more than a quarter of a century we haven't create, reach, receive, but have been fighting for survival. During this time, a whole generation has lost a dream. It's time to say "Enough!" There's no need in "life in a new way," "reboot" or other political slogans. What the country really need is real changes in all spheres and sectors. We need that state, we had in the times of Kievan Rus, the Almighty Hetmans, the state which the patriots of 1918-1920's, the Cold Yar Rebels and the UPA were fighting for. And the dawn of this state is gradually coming. The elite of this state has already born on the front!

Glory to Ukraine!
