The U.S. Department of State recently congratulated Ukraine on its third revolution anniversary.
"Three years ago, thousands of Ukrainians came together on the Maidan, Kyiv's central square, to demand that their voices be heard," on its website, the U.S. Department of State.
During this revolution, Ukraine citizens were out in harsh temperatures and often vindicated by police and security forces. All of this was done in order to have a peaceful government and to "recognize their choice to join Europe."
The State Department is proud of the progress the Ukraine has accomplished since the revolution, and expects further progress to be made.
"As we remember the courage and resolve shown by the Ukrainian people in the Revolution of Dignity, the United States calls on Ukraine’s leaders to strengthen efforts to fight corruption and continue the political and economic reforms that will honor those who gave their lives to secure a better, more democratic future for Ukraine" the State Department said.
Since 1991, the U.S. has served as strong supporter for the people of Ukraine and its country.
Moving forward, the U.S. Department of State reports it will continue to support and be an ally in Ukraine's fight for a strong and peaceful revolution.
