Greeting to convention delegates from President Leonid Kuchma

Dear Friends,

Please accept my sincerest greetings to the delegates and guests of the Ukrainian National Association who have gathered in Canada for the 34th UNA Convention.

In Ukraine, the work of your organization, which is known as the biggest and the oldest Ukrainian insurance company in the world, is highly valued. The rich history of the UNA, which was created 104 years ago as the first organization to unite Ukrainians beyond Ukraine, calls for deep respect.

Multi-faceted community activity for the good of the entire diaspora was, is, and I believe, will remain a distinguishing characteristic of the UNA.

I wish the participants of the 34th Convention, as well as all of the members of the Ukrainian National Association, great success as they protect the interests of our fellow Ukrainians in North America.

And may the UNA strengthen its ties with its motherland, Ukraine.

Respectfully yours,
Leonid Kuchma
