Greetings from the Chairman of the SES of Ukraine Mykola Chechotkin on the occation of The Independence Day of Ukraine

Dear colleagues!

I congratulate you on The Independence Day of Ukraine


On August 24, 1991, the ukrainian people asserted their right to be masters in their native land, to have their own State. Independence has opened up great opportunities for the spiritual development, economic growth and well-being of every citizen.

Unfortunately, today the struggle for independence is ongoing. Ukraine is forced to defend its right to independence, to have own opinion and peaceful future.

In the difficult conditions nowdays, rescuers of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine at the first call are always ready to help the victims. Our units, with excellent professional training, responsiveness and experience, accomplish the tasks on purpose. Thank you for your heroism, commitment, and hard work.

I wish you good health, family well-being, happiness, peaceful skies, endurance and new achievements for the benefit of ukrainian people.
