On this holiday, we honor our Armed Forces, all soldiers, sergeants, officers and generals, our esteemed veterans, and extend our best wishes to them. I congratulate our entire national army, all our military personnel. We all know and appreciate your selfless service in the name of defense of the Motherland, bravery and courage. Therefore, I want you to accept these awards as a sign of unlimited respect and attention of our people to the Armed Forces, to all their personnel, – said Shavkat Mirziyoyev.

That is why today we attach serious importance not only to the combat training of military personnel, but also to educating them in the spirit of patriotism. Every soldier and sergeant, officer and general, all personnel must have a strong national spirit and a sense of pride. The national spirit is an invincible force. When the national spirit is strong, there will be a strong will, high combat potential. Where do our children, who dream of becoming military, get their national spirit? How does the feeling of responsibility for the fate of our sacred Motherland form? In the rich history of our Motherland, in the courage of such great ancestors as Amir Temur. In their family, parents, trust, care and attention of our people. In you, truly selfless military, always serving as an example and model for youth, – the President said.

He emphasized the need for further enhancing interaction between authorities and administrations at all levels, makhallas, youth, women and older people, education institutions, the general public.

– Becoming a general is the dream of every military personnel. I sincerely congratulate you on being honored with this high title.
