Dear friends,

On behalf of the staff of the Ukrainian Embassy in the State of Israel and myself, I sincerely congratulate you with the our national holiday - Independence Day of Ukraine!

This day is very important for all Ukrainians, no matter whether they live in Ukraine, in Israel or in any other part of the world. In our hearts, this day symbolises freedom, democracy, patriotism and the pride of the Ukrainian nation.

We have already achieved a lot. But we are only at the beginning of our way to build prosperous and successful European state.

I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the benefit of Ukraine and its people.

I wish our country continued well-being as well as peace and prosperity for all Ukrainians, along with our true friends and supporters of Ukraine.

May this holiday inspire you to new achievements, fill your hearts with pride for our country and love for our homeland.

Happy Independence Day!

Sincerely,

Ambassador Hennadii Nadolenko
