The Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine's New Year Greetings

Dear Ukrainians!

My sincere greetings to you on the New Year 2026!

The past year was extremely difficult – another year of full-scale war, losses, and destruction caused by russia’s aggression. At the same time, it was another year of Ukrainian heroism, unity, and important victories.

We are proud to be Ukrainians and together – on the front lines and in the rear – we defend our land, unity, and independence. The courage, resilience, and unity of the Ukrainian people in confronting the aggressor have already become an example for the entire world community.

We are deeply grateful to the soldiers who are defending every meter of our Motherland with weapons in their hands, as well as to the millions of Ukrainians on the home front – doctors, critical infrastructure workers, teachers, farmers, volunteers, and all those who, through their daily work and selfless help, are bringing our victory closer.

I am sure that 2026 will be a year of unity, new opportunities and the approach of Victory, and will bring peace and prosperity to Ukraine. I wish everyone good health, faith, inspiration and a peaceful sky.

Glory to Ukraine!

Head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine
Lieutenant General Oleh IVASHCHENKO
