Alexander Zakharchenko congratulated residents of the Republic on Child Protection Day

Dear friends! International Children’s Day is a special holiday to the entire Donetsk People’s Republic.

A hard lot has fallen to children of Donbas — war. Unfortunately, our children know what shelling, explosions and shelters are. However, despite the difficulties, the Republic is being reborn, schools and recreation camps are being reconstructed, sports clubs and classes are being opened. Our children go to school, take holidays, grow up and make progress.

Children, I wholeheartedly congratulate you on the beginning of summer and school breack. Let these days be carefree and cheerful, enjoy every day of your childhood, and let it be bright and unforgettable! And we, adults, in our turn, promise to protect you from all problems and hardships!

I want you to know that everything we do is done for you and for your sake. You are our future, we will leave this land to you, you will live and work in it. 

We will always protect you!
