Reagan's actual quote is very close to that.

Thats why I post the picture upside down; the quote is a lie

Yes indeed, it was an outright lie. And the phrase, "Ukraine you are not alone," is not found in the Reagan speech whatsoever. The remainder of the quote in the graphic on this thread is found in the following and not specific, but used as a summation of the entirety.

What follows is an excerpt from and link to the speech.

"When we look around the world, to Europe, Africa, Asia, and Latin America, we find that the bonds of language, faith, and kinship have not been replaced by a new order built on class struggle. The yearning for national independence has not been extinguished by the totalitarian state, and the tide of history has been revealed to all mankind to be a rising tide of freedom and national liberation.

"On behalf of Vice President Bush and myself, this pledge we make to you, to all the peoples of the captive nations around the world: America will never forget your plight, and we will never cease to speak the truth. Your struggle is our struggle; your dream is our dream. And one day you will be free."
