Dear metallurgists! Happy professional holiday!
For each of us, the Day of Metallurgist is a special holiday. It is forged by the history of our city and will always be a part of us. The fate of thousands of Mariupol families is connected with this profession.
Throughout all the years you, metallurgists helped to build and develop Mariupol. Your hard work has turned our home into the heart of Ukrainian metallurgy. With your own hands, you create a powerful industry and a strong economy of the country.
I know how the steel and the strength of the spirit of Mariupol are tempered. I am proud of you, our metallurgists. You are an example of hard work, support and steel will. The real patriots of our native city. Metallurgists not by word but by deed help to develop Mariupol. Together with you we are building a strong, smart, inspiring city of new opportunities.
I am grateful to each of you, to each veteran of metallurgy. You are the soul of our city. With all my heart, I wish you iron health, happiness, well-being, peace to you and your families!
Sincerely yours,
Vadim Boichenko
Mayor of Mariupol
