The newspaper "Ukraine is Young" writes about this with reference to the statement of three ex-presidents of the country - Leonid Kravchuk, Leonid Kuchma and Viktor Yushchenko.
The former guarantors submitted a corresponding appeal to the Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Andriy Parubiy in order to consolidate their initiative at the legislative level.
“Our statehood begins with Kievan Rus. Unfortunately, 1239 became very sad for Kyiv and Rus', when we practically lost the power of the Kyiv state. But in the middle of the seventeenth century. The foundations of a new Ukrainian state appeared; it fought for its political sovereignty and territorial integrity in difficult battles.
... During the 1991th century alone, Ukraine declared independence six times, and it was taken away from us five times. Some of the states existed for literally an hour. But it was worth the fight. Therefore, the independence that we declared in XNUMX is one of the greatest events for the Ukrainian nation. This is our resurrection,” said Viktor Yushchenko.
