Ukrainians will bow their heads only to honor their heroes, not to anyone else - Head of State
President Petro Poroshenko stresses that Ukraine and its citizens will remember the heroes who have defended their native land, will not forgive the pain and losses caused by the enemy and will never change their chosen path.
"Let us believe - Ukraine will not retreat from its own chosen path. Let us believe - Ukrainians will bow their heads only to honor their heroes, not to anyone else. Let us believe - we will definitely overcome all the difficulties and reach the goal. The goal is to build a free, independent and just state, a member of the European Union and NATO," the Head of State said during his speech at the event devoted to the fourth anniversary of remembrance of the defenders of the Donetsk airport.
"Eternal memory to the fallen defenders of the Donetsk airport. We will never forget the heroic feat and will not forgive the enemy. And we will not betray what we believe in and fight for," he also stressed.
"I hope that one peaceful day in peaceful and liberated Donbas, we we will all gather at the runway of the Donetsk airport. Near its terminals. Near the famous tower. We will stand there and just keep silent. Just stand, listening to the echoes of fierce battles. And imagine at least for a moment the things our warriors-”cyborgs” have lived through,” Petro Poroshenko added.
The President expressed belief that the land seized by the enemy will be liberated, returned under the Ukrainian flag, and the territorial integrity of our state will be restored.
"We will rebuild the airport of Donetsk and the Ukrainian flag, which "cyborgs" have been hoisting again and again under the bullets and projectiles, will always wave at its high control tower. The airport will become better, more modern. Planes from all over the world will land and depart there. And we will always remember our heroes,” the Head of State said.
