Defender of Ukraine Day
Defender of Ukraine Day
is a state holiday in
Ukraine
celebrated annually on October 14.
Its first celebration was in 2015.
Starting from 2015, this day is considered a
public holiday
(this is thus a day off in Ukraine).
On 14 October 2014, a decree by
Ukrainian President
Petro Poroshenko
decreed the new holiday due to the
Russian military intervention in Ukraine (2014–present)
and
decommunization in Ukraine
.
This decree was approved by the
Ukrainian parliament
on 5 March 2015.
The holiday replaced the former February 23's holiday called
Defender of the Fatherland Day
, which has its origin in the
Soviet Union
. (As the
Ukrainian SSR
, Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union from 1922 until Ukraine
declared its independence from the Soviet Union
on 24 August 1991.
