Speech highlights:
In the 15 years of independence Ukraine managed to keep itself in one piece: no mean achievement. It has managed to lay a foundation for its modern state identity, while avoiding tragic conflicts. In the last two years, Ukraine has gone through a revolution followed by national consolidation on a new level. It continues to advance at its own pace, expressing its European aspirations, while at the same time maintaining close links with the Russian Federation. A successful Ukraine, with a transformed economy, the rule of law firmly established and genuine political pluralism a respected norm, one which would allow its citizens to enjoy freedom and provide them with security will be good news for its neighbors, including Russia, Belarus and Moldova. It would also be an anchor of stability in Eastern Europe and the Black Sea area. Nothing, however, is automatic, or pre-ordained. The Ukrainian political class bears responsibility for making things right and continuing on the upward curve.
