Today, 29 August, on the Day of Remembrance of the Defenders of Ukraine, we bow our heads to all who gave their lives for our freedom and independence. Every day we remember the courage, sacrifice and strength of spirit of the Ukrainian army, which stands guard over our future.
For Lviv Polytechnic, this memory has a special meaning. Among the students, employees and graduates of our university, there are many who stood up to defend our Motherland. They were next to us – friends, colleagues, classmates. Today their names are inscribed in the Book of Remembrance of Lviv Polytechnicians, and their feat will forever remain in the history of the university and in the hearts of many generations. Our University has joined the All-Ukrainian action Table of Memory which reminds us of an important guest who will not be able to come because he gave his life for Ukraine.
We express our sincere respect and condolences to the families of the deceased. Let us remember that we must be witnesses of the truth. Each of us must become an ambassador of Ukraine, who will tell the whole world about the tragedy of war, about the price of freedom, about those who are still in captivity of the enemy.
Our duty is to support the defenders, preserve unity, work for the future and do everything to be worthy of their sacrifice.
Eternal glory to the fallen soldiers!
Glory to Ukraine!
