35 years and the decades before that, attempts to suppress us, subjugate us, erase our past — continue to this day.
Behind each year in that number is a heavy history. We remember everyone who fought — those killed by repression, killed by Russia, killed for their ideals and for being proud of their origins, whose strength of spirit, voice, and actions won this day for us, once again defending our independence.
Over these 35 years we now clearly know who we are, who our enemy is, and what we must do to hold firm and preserve our future.
Today is a day defended by generations. 35 independent years — 35 years of one whole.
Happy Independence Day of Ukraine!
