This day is about everyone who makes significant efforts and fights for the right to live freely on our land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our country&#8217;s path over the years has been challenging, but independence has given us the right to decide our destiny and build our state on our principles. This day reminds us of our responsibility towards those who gave their lives for freedom, towards those who continue to defend it with guns in their hands, and towards those who are waiting for the Ukrainian flag to return to the occupied territories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, this day is special for Crimea, where Independence Day is celebrated under Russian occupation. We remember all those who remain loyal to their country, even in the face of intimidation and pressure. The people of Crimea continue to resist the occupation with all available means and wait for the return of the Ukrainian flag to the peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russia is trying to break the Ukrainian spirit by conducting searches and detentions, imprisoning Ukrainian citizens on trumped-up charges, and exerting public pressure. However, our citizens remain resilient, waiting for their liberation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We cannot underestimate the contribution of those fighting at the frontline, repelling enemy attacks and destroying them, bringing victory in the war closer every day and liberating Ukrainian lands. The Ukrainian army, our defenders, are fighting for the present and future of Ukraine and are ready to pay the ultimate price for peace and freedom. Despite the difficulties, despite the whistling of bullets and explosions of shells, they raise flags over the liberated cities, and one day, they will raise flags over Ukrainian Simferopol, Sevastopol, and every town and village in Crimea.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This day also reminds us of the importance of unity in the struggle and in achieving our goals. Although many of us are temporarily separated by borders, our shared values of freedom, democracy, and love for our homeland unite all Ukrainians. Only unity and joint efforts, rooted in these shared values, will allow us to liberate Ukraine from the occupiers and restore its integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Happy Independence Day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Illustration: Nikita Titov<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":60839,"template":"","publication-type":[43],"class_list":["post-61073","press-center","type-press-center","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","publication-type-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Ukraine: 33 Years of Independence - Mission of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ppu.gov.ua\/en\/press-center\/ukraina-33-roky-nezalezhnosti\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ukraine: 33 Years of Independence - Mission of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Today is a fundamental day for Ukrainians: 33 years since a new page in Ukraine&#8217;s history was opened, and our country regained its independence.
