Taking the Oath of Allegiance to the Ukrainian people is an important event in the life of everyone who has chosen to protect the rights and freedoms of citizens. I am glad to congratulate you on a conscious and important choice in life - to defend the Ukrainian people from both internal and external enemies. It places a great responsibility on you for the happy future of our homeland.

We need law enforcement officers of the European level, ready to perform their duties in the conditions of dynamic development of Ukrainian society. Therefore, first of all, we face an important task - training new staff, skilled and efficient employees who know how and want to meet the new requirements of the time!

Cadets! I believe that you will make every effort to glorify the National Police in our state. I am convinced that even in the most difficult conditions you will remain faithful to the Oath, direct all your strength and professional skills to maintaining peace and tranquility.

I wish you and your family good health, happiness, well-being, strength of spirit. May love for Ukraine and human honour inspire you to new achievements in the noble actions of faithful service to the Ukrainian people!

Glory to Ukraine!

The Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine
