Zelensky congratulates police on professional holiday

"Four years ago, on Sofiyska Square in Kyiv, the first patrol police officers took an oath and assumed high responsibility before the Ukrainian people," the president's letter of congratulations reads.

Zelensky said that any road to true changes is always thorny, with successes and mistakes.

He said that the work of police officers is not very easy, because, in addition to ensuring public safety, maintaining law and order and fighting crime, they must justify the trust of Ukrainian society every day.

Zelensky wished police officers savoir faire, strength and wisdom in everyday hard and dangerous work.

The president also thanked all police officers who are courageously and honestly fulfilling their duties and for whom "to serve and to protect" are not just words but the meaning of life.
