The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on Saturday took it to his official social media handle to express the new year greetings among the people of Ukraine.
However, the wishes from the Ukrainian President was so much filled with the pain and problems that Ukraine has suffered in the past year of 2022, mainly because of the ongoing war between the Russian Federation as well as Ukraine.
In the wishes, President Zelenskyy added that, “2022 struck our hearts. We cried out all the tears. All the prayers were yelled. 311 days. We have something to say about every minute. But most words are superfluous. No explanation needed. Silence is needed to hear. Pauses are needed to realize.”
While emphasizing upon the factor of victory, President Zelenskyy said that, “We don’t know for sure what new 2023 will bring us. I want to wish all of us mainly 1 thing – victory. And that’s the main thing. Let this 2023 year be the year of return. The return of Ukrainian people.”
At the same time, President Zelenskyy noted that, “Soldiers – to their families. Prisoners to their homes. Immigrants to their homeland, Ukraine. The return of our lands. And the temporarily occupied regions will become forever free.”
While emphasizing upon the new year, President Zelenskyy added about the return to the normal regular life, the happy times without any curfew. He also mentioned about, “To earthly joys without air alerts. The return of what has actually been stolen from Ukraine. The childhood of our Ukrainian children, the peaceful old age of our parents.”
At the same time, President Zelenskyy, while extending wishes added that, “May the New Year bring all it. We’re ready to fight for it. That’s why each of us is here. I’m here. We’re here. You’re here. Everyone’s here. We’re all Ukraine. Glory to Ukraine! Happy New Year!”
