Speech to celebrate Ukraine’s independence day – Dear Ambassador of Ukraine to Vietnam Aleksandr Gaman, Dear Ukrainian guests, Ladies and Gentlemen! Three days ago the Ukrainian Army broke through the first defence line of the Russian invaders in the Robotine area, liberated Robotine, entered Novoprokopivka, began to attack the 2nd defence line of the Russian invaders, towards the city Tokmak is 25 km away. From Tokmak to Melitopol only 63 km. Although it is very difficult, although it is very fierce, even though many people have to be sacrificed, Tokmak and Melitopol will have to be liberated. Crimea will be isolated and fall into the siege, attacked. After 18 months of aggression since February 24, 2022, Putin’s Russian army has completely failed in all goals. Must withdraw from Kiev, Chernihiv, Sumy on the entire Northern border. Pushed back from Kharkiv, Kupyansk on the Eastern Front. Had to flee from Kherson on the Southern front. From the defensive position, the Ukrainian army turned to counter-attack on the whole line from the Eastern Front to the Southern Front, in Bakhmut in Donetsk Oblast, in the direction of Berdyansk and in the direction of Melitopol in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, on the left bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson Oblast. While the Ukrainian army on the front is sacrificing blood and blood to liberate every square meter of Ukraine’s land, at this moment we meet here to celebrate Ukraine’s Independence Day. On August 24, 1991, Ukraine left the Soviet Union and became an independent, free and democratic country. But unfortunately, the path to independence, freedom and democracy chosen by the Ukrainian people was blocked by the tyrant Putin. Misfortune for humanity in the 21st century, in the age of globalization civilization, there are still tyrants who dream of expanding their territory and trying to rewrite history. Putin obstructed Ukraine’s democratic choice, infringed on Ukraine’s territorial integrity, and brought death to the Ukrainian people with a cruel, unruly, senseless war of aggression. As people of a country that has experienced many wars against aggression, we stand with the Ukrainian people, paying our respects to the heroic Ukrainian people. Righteous people around the world are grateful to the people of Ukraine for their blood sacrifices to uphold international law. The heroic struggle of the Ukrainian people not only thwarts Putin’s territorial ambitions and attempts to redraw the borders in Europe, but also warns against the expansionists in Asia who are trying to swallow the whole seas of Southeast Asian countries. Whether the battle lasts until 2024, 2025 or longer, even with many sacrifices, the Ukrainian army will finally reach the border of independent Ukraine on August 24, 1991. Putin’s invaders will be defeated. Viva Ukraine! – Hanoi 24/8/2023
