Zelensky congratulates Ukrainians on Day of Victory over Nazism

On May 9, President Volodymyr Zelensky congratulated Ukrainians on the Day of Victory over Nazism.

Zelensky states this in a video address.

"This is not a war of two armies. This is a war of two worldviews. Barbarians who shell the Skovoroda Museum and believe that their missiles can destroy our philosophy…

We are fighting for the freedom of our children, and thus we will win. We will never forget what our ancestors did in World War II, which killed more than eight million Ukrainians. And very soon there will be two Victory Days in Ukraine. And someone will have none. We won then. We will win now. And Khreshchatyk will see the parade of victory, the victory of Ukraine!" said Zelensky.

The President stressed that no one could annex Ukraine's victory in World War II, which fought against Nazism as part of the anti-Hitler coalition.

"What is our advantage over the enemy? We are smarter with one book. This is a textbook on the history of Ukraine. We wouldn't know suffering if all our enemies could read and draw the right conclusions. On February 24, russia launched an offensive. Attack on the same rake. Every occupier who comes to our land is stepping on it. We have been through different wars. But we all had one finale. Our land was planted with bullets and shells, but no enemy could take root here. There are no shackles that can restrain our free spirit," said Zelensky.
