President Volodymyr Zelenskyy marked the Day of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Friday (Dec. 6) with a powerful address to troops and military leaders.

"Yesterday marked 30 years since the signing of the Budapest Memorandum," he said, referencing the 1994 agreement where Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan relinquished their nuclear arsenals in exchange for security assurances from global powers, including the U.S., UK, and Russia.
"Today, it is clear that the true, most important, and most reliable guarantee of our security lies with the Armed Forces of Ukraine," Zelenskyy added.
