Quote: "I managed to hand over pasochky [Orthodox Easter bread] to our wounded soldiers in one of the hospitals of Ukraine and to the medical team, because we need to realise that our military medics are also on the frontline today - they are, in fact, responsible for the lives and health of our wounded soldiers.

And so that you understand that this is also a huge victory on the part of Ukrainian military medicine: the extremely high percentage of wounded soldiers who go back to the army - it's over 80%...

I'm talking about the level of military medicine, the quality of treatment and the quality of rehabilitation."
