Ukraine does not perceive the congratulations from its partners to the Russians on the occasion of public holidays in the aggressor country positively.
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated this during a briefing, Censor.NET reports with reference to RBC-Ukraine .
According to Zelensky , this day is a symbol of the independence of Russia, which at the same time is waging a war to deprive Ukraine of its independence.
“In any case, congratulations to Russia on Russia Day from the United States are an unpleasant fact for me. I will not hide it. This is Russia’s Independence Day. They want to take away our independence. This is a war, specifically for the independence of Ukraine. Russia’s war against Ukraine,” the president said.
He also emphasized that in the context of the war that Russia is waging against Ukraine, congratulations on its national holidays from Ukraine’s partners are perceived negatively.
Zelenskyy called for understanding the symbolism of such actions in the context of the current confrontation.
Recall that earlier Rubio congratulated Russians on Russia Day.

Every minister in this Trump cabinet has Pro-Russian views……………………
Rubio had surrendered his dignity and his integrity to get a spot in Trump’s fascist administration. This latest self-abasement in the face of a deeply criminal and evil state is not only humiliating to this spineless Taco servant, but also to the United States.
