This week has strengthened Ukraine, and tomorrow there will be important news – Zelenskyy
Not only because of the power of our weapons, but also because of the power of our spirit and humanity, evil will never prevail in Ukraine.
This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on September 29.
The President added that this week has brought Ukrainians significant strength, but tomorrow he will announce important news for Ukraine.
– This week has significantly strengthened our state and our people. Tomorrow there will be important news for Ukraine – for our soldiers, for our entire state,” he said.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy also said that today was an emotional day.
– He started it with events in Babyn Yar. It is the 82nd anniversary of the mass shootings of Jews by the Nazis at Babyn Yar. Over 30,000 people were killed in just a few days in September 1941. In total, about 100,000 people were killed in Babyn Yar during the Nazi occupation. Jews, Roma, and Ukrainians. Representatives of other nations,” he said.
The Head of State emphasized that today it is very important to preserve the memory of those victims and the evil that the Holocaust committed and then was defeated and punished.
– Ukraine cherishes this memory. Never again! For us, for Ukraine, for the entire civilized world, these are not empty words. And it will always be so. It is very symbolic that today I met with our Ukrainian teachers, those on whom the preservation of historical memory and, in many ways, humanity depends. This Sunday, Ukraine will celebrate Teacher’s Day, the day of education workers,” the president said.
At the same time, Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that education is always more than acquiring knowledge and skills and mastering a profession: “It is also a character, its strength. It is a clear distinction between good and evil that comes when you study human culture.”
– Education prepares and adjusts a person’s moral compass so that it works and so that through it, a person’s work, a person’s life enriches humanity. This is very important. And we see, in particular, from what Russia is doing, what happens when the education system goes bankrupt. When the moral compass of people and the whole society is broken. Evil then reigns in such a country,” he said.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized that this will never happen in Ukraine, and this is not only due to the power of weapons, but also due to the strength of spirit and the strength of Ukrainian characters – “humanity, which will definitely win.”
