What is the path of a defender? What is the path of a veteran? It is not just a route traveled by one person, but a path that is measured by the support and compassion of each of us.
When a defender stands on the front line, they know that the nation is behind them, supporting their dedication and sacrifice. When a veteran returns from the front, their path continues in civilian life, where not only their own strength is important, but also the strength of the community ready to lend a helping hand.
This path should go round and round, when we all, as a part of society, support our defenders and veterans. We have to create conditions for their reintegration, help them with education, provide medical care and psychological support, and facilitate their participation in public life.
It is up to each of us to make this journey a success. By honoring and supporting our heroes, we not only thank them for their service, but also demonstrate the strength and unity of our nation.
Let us stand together at every step of their journey. Support and gratitude are our duty and honor.
