Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has highlighted the role of his country’s air force in the war against Russia. “Russia had hoped to destroy our air force in the first hours of the great invasion. And of course that was a completely crazy target for the enemy – like many other targets, too, ”Zelenskyj said in a video message distributed in Kyiv on Saturday. The pilots are first class and are also praised for their skills by other countries.
The head of state had previously congratulated the “Day of the Air Force”. and declares: “The invaders will perish like dew in the sun. And our defense is and will be the sun.” Zelenskyy emphasized once again that the struggle for freedom and the country’s independence can only succeed if we work together.
“It’s a collaborative effort. And it is a result that will be achieved thanks to the strength and solidarity of everyone who values freedom and does not tolerate tyranny,” said referring also to other states supporting Ukraine. “Freedom always wins.” Zelenskyj announced that supporters of Ukraine abroad should also be honored.
