Keep Fighting – You Are Sure to Win!
August 24, 2024
“And glory, mountains blue, to you,
In ageless ice encased!
And glory, freedom’s knights, to you,
Whom God will not forsake.
Keep fighting—you are sure to win!
God helps you in your fight!
For fame and freedom march with you,
And right is on your side!”
In the spirit of the great Ukrainian poet, the nation’s bard, Taras Shevchenko, we come together today with a message of unwavering support and solidarity:
“Keep fighting – you are sure to win!”
These words resonate with the courage and resilience of a people who refuse to give up. This year marks the third Independence Day that Ukraine celebrates amidst a brutal full-scale invasion by Russia. Yet, the Ukrainian people continue their fierce fight against tyranny, defending their homeland with unwavering determination. The EU Advisory Mission stands with you in this struggle, sharing the steadfast belief in the inevitable triumph of freedom and sovereignty.
On this Independence Day, we are honored to stand alongside our partners, united by a common commitment to democracy. We are here to support the journey toward peace, justice, and a bright future within the European family.
Let us celebrate the strength, determination, and unbreakable spirit that inspire us all. Together, we know that victory will come – because right is on your side.
Happy Independence Day!
