On August 25, 1991, the day after Ukraine, Belarus restored its independence. Three decades later, we have to defend it again. I am proud of every Belarusian who does not give up and continues to fight for our beloved Belarus. We will regain our country and our independence.

[Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya @Tsihanouskaya]

Ukraine defends not only its freedom & independence but the honor & dignity of the whole of Europe. We already know that for Putin, Belarus & Ukraine should not exist as states at all. And it unites us in our fight. I wish nothing but victory to 🇺🇦 on Independence day.

🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 Happy Birthday #Ukraine! This Independence Day is only possible thanks to the resilience, courage, and sacrifices of the #Ukrainian people. #СлаваУкраїні #GloryToUkraine

[Franak Viačorka @franakviacorka]

Ukraine declared Independence Day on August 24, 1991. We declared it the next day. Our histories are intertwined & connected. Our peoples have never fought, but they have often defended themselves together. It's the same now. We have a common enemy. Happy Independence Day 🇺🇦.
