Dear attendees!
Ladies and gentlemen!
Dear Mr. Prime Minister, Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada! All our guests!
Dear Ukrainian diplomats!
Today we have convened for three reasons.
First, of course, is gratitude. Today, on Ukraine’s Diplomatic Service Day, on behalf of all our people, our entire Ukrainian society, I thank you – the entire Ukrainian diplomatic community – for your work in the interests of the state of Ukraine, in the interests of our people. Everyone knows their own results.
All those who are effective for the sake of Ukraine, all those who add – and this is important – to Ukraine’s strength every day, all those whose ideas have worked and whose energy opens up new opportunities for Ukraine, whether in the diplomatic service system or outside it, but as Ukrainian representatives, our missions... I am grateful to all of you and congratulate you on your professional day!
The second thing that is important to say today is our joint achievements. Ukraine has really done a lot over the past year. In many areas. [excerpt]
