During a working trip to Kyiv region, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy took part in the Skovoroda 300 cultural and artistic forum, dedicated to the anniversary of the birth of the famous Ukrainian philosopher, poet and teacher, which will be celebrated in Ukraine on December 3.

Speaking with students and teachers of Hryhorii Skovoroda University in Pereiaslav, who were joined by students and teachers of Skovoroda Kharkiv National Pedagogical University and National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy in a video call, the Head of State said that it is always a pleasure to meet with educated and intelligent people. "I have great respect for teachers. I know that this is a difficult job, because I myself was born into a teacher's family. But I understand how difficult it is for students, because I was a student myself," he said.
