Dear women, charming and wonderful savers of the fireside!

Please accept my warm-hearted congratulations on the occasion of the 8th of March - holiday of spring, beauty and femininity! Initiated at the beginning of the last century, International Women's Day has been reconsidered by us long ago and acquired much deeper and special meaning, because for centuries at tender shoulders of Ukrainian women was kept home comfort, upbringing of children, cultural heritage and connection between generations. Only in Ukrainian woman the wisdom is combined with strong character, tenderness with courage, lyricism with continual energy. You, present savers, can do everything. You sow the grain and foster the bread, govern big enterprises and create laws.

On this festive day, I want to thank sincerely to the mothers who, despite difficult processes in the country, still give birth to babies and devote themselves to adoption and care of the unfortunate. I deeply bow to women - veterans, mothers and wives of soldiers, because they passed through anxiety and War. Thousands of lives were saved with the help of Your prayers and strength of will.

I am sure that creation and multicipation of kindness is the most important and honorable mission of the fair half. So, I wish You love, joy, steadfast health, harmony and happiness! Let your energy and creativity always inspire those who are close to You, on making great deeds!
