Two holidays came to us almost simultaneously in the current May – Resurrection of Christ and Victory Day. Both of them are symbols of saved life, rebirth, hope for the future and faith in better for all of us. The light of Easter, as well as light of the Victory Day, is independent from time. Both holidays have always been popular. We solemnly commemorate the soldiers who live near us. With the words of gratitude for the victory in the Second World War, I appeal to you, dear veterans! I wish good health you and your family. Let fate gives you more than one peaceful and sunny spring. Your life was and always will be a bright example for young people, including the students of our University.
In these days of May, we pay tribute to soldiers, who did not return from the war and died after its completion. We remember the partisans; workers of rear and children of war. All, what they went through, hasn’t analogues in the history. I am sure that wise and patient Ukrainian people will continue the traditions of winners. Indeed, at the present stage of development of the country, such cohesion and unity of action is as important as during the years of war.
I congratulate You with the Victory Day and wish peace to every employee, student of higher educational institution and send my best wishes to countrymen!
The same greetings I also send in connection with a bright holiday of Christ's Resurrection, which is the symbol of peace, kindness and love to fellowmen. God bless us for peace, tranquility, harmony and happy future!
