Dear teachers, cadets, students, trainees, lyceum students of educational institutions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine!

On behalf of the Collegium of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, I congratulate you on the start of the new academic year and the Day of Knowledge!

Today Ukraine celebrates a holiday that brings together a large community of former, modern and future education seekers and teachers. It is also a family holiday, because educated, talented and innovative youth are the pride of any family.

Every day we together fulfill the main task - we provide safe conditions for the development of society, we protect the peace of citizens. Soon, future police officers, rescuers, border guards and guardsmen will enforce the law, truth and justice.

The task of our educational institutions is to teach graduates to be effective and proactive, using modern achievements of science and technology, attracting the best foreign experience. I believe that the abilities of our teachers, their perseverance and professionalism will become the key to the formation of the future elite of law enforcement officers in our country.

It is a special holiday in the families of first-year students. I sincerely congratulate you on your choice to get education in educational institutions of the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. I hope that you will find friends and like-minded people here, believe in yourself, gain knowledge and skills to achieve professional success.

I wish you all good health, happiness, peace, creative inspiration, success in your studies and service for the benefit of the Ukrainian people!

Glory to Ukraine!

Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Denys MONASTYRSKYI
