STORY: More than a thousand officers graduated this year, according to the Ukrainian Presidential Press Service.
“I am the third-generation in the army in my family. It was a conscious decision. I am from Crimea. It is my duty to protect my fatherland,” said officer Kateryna Hryshenkina.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy congratulated graduates in a video message.
The graduation ceremony for chaplains was held in historic Saint Sophia cathedral, attended by Hanna Maliar, Deputy Defence Minister.
