Dear colleagues, lecturers, staff, students, and friends of our institute!

I sincerely congratulate you on Vyshyvanka Day — a holiday that unites Ukrainians around the world and reminds us of the power of our culture, the depth of national memory, and the indomitable Ukrainian spirit.

The vyshyvanka is not just an item of clothing. It is a symbol of our identity, family continuity, love for Ukraine, and respect for traditions passed down from generation to generation. In every ornament there is history, in every thread — the warmth of hands, the memory of ancestors, and faith in the future.

Today, in these difficult times for our country, the vyshyvanka takes on special significance. It becomes a sign of unity, dignity, inner strength, and confidence that Ukrainian culture is alive, strong, and invincible.

I wish everyone peace, inspiration, strength, faith, and pride in our Ukraine.

Happy Vyshyvanka Day!

Respectfully
D.Sc., Professor, Director of SEI USUCT
