Greeting of the Commandant of the National Defence University of Ukraine on the occasion of the Day of the Territorial Defence Forces of Ukraine

The Territorial Defence is living proof that Ukrainians are ready to defend every meter of their land. It is not just military units — it is a community of people who have taken upon themselves the duty to be the shield of the country, their families, and the future.

Every day, the soldiers of the Territorial Defence prove that the enemy will not pass where there is determination and unity. This strength will help us endure, overcome, and bring closer the day when the word peace once again becomes natural for Ukraine.

The National Defence University of Ukraine is proud to stand with you in this struggle — preparing those who are able to lead and shape a new quality of our Armed Forces.

Glory to the soldiers of the Territorial Defence Forces!
Peace and Victory to Ukraine!
Glory to Ukraine!

Commandant of the National Defence University of Ukraine
Colonel General Mykhailo KOVAL
