Intercession, Day of the Cossacks and Defender of Ukraine - October 14

According to this Decree, the holiday was established "in order to honor the courage and heroism of the defenders of the independence and territorial integrity of Ukraine, military traditions and victories of the Ukrainian people, to further strengthen the patriotic spirit in society and to support the public's initiative." Also, the document approved the date of its annual celebration - October 14, and the Defender of the Fatherland Day, previously celebrated in the country on February 23, was also abolished. This holiday has been known since Soviet times, and in independent Ukraine it was established in 1999, according to the decree of the then President Leonid Kuchma. The date of October 14 for the new holiday was not chosen by chance. Every year on this day, the Day of the Ukrainian Cossacks is celebrated - a holiday dedicated to the Day of the Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos (since the Mother of God is considered the protector and patroness of the Cossacks). Also on this day, the anniversary of the creation (in 1942) of the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), a military-political unit of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), is traditionally celebrated. And since Poroshenko also stated that he wants to resolve the issue of the status of UPA soldiers as defenders of Ukraine at the state level, then October 14, in his opinion, will be associated with real heroes of Ukraine, participants in hostilities and the war for the country's independence.
