Ada Rogovtseva spoke about meeting Valery Zaluzhny

“I am grateful to fate for giving me personal communication with Valery Zaluzhny before his name became familiar to every Ukrainian and known throughout the world. And the first thing I learned about Valery Fedorovich was that he was a man of his words. It was through his efforts that Dmitry Kotsyubailo, the legendary commander of the 1st assault company of the DUK, received the title Hero of Ukraine even before his unit joined the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The meeting of the volunteer hero Da Vinci and Commander-in-Chief Zaluzhny on the stage of the October Palace remains unforgettable, when Valery Fedorovich personally came to congratulate and attach the golden Hero Star to Dmitry’s jacket,” wrote Rogovotseva .

He believes that Ukraine has produced such a commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during the war with Russia.

“Behind the shoulders of the general are all levels of military education and all with honors. All levels of military service – from cadet to commander-in-chief, and all add invaluable experience. He takes part in his life’s work and achieved world recognition in it, stopping the Russian army, as if fate itself was preparing him to save Ukraine in times of difficult trials. We are lucky to have Zaluzhny at the head of the army in this historic period. The general’s unconditional authority over the military is one of the pillars of our resistance and perseverance,” added the actress.
