2023 Ukraine
20 Hryvnias Banknote
"We Will Not Forget"
In The Official Folder With Shevchenko Poem
Uncirculated
The Commemorative banknote entitled “WE WILL NOT FORGET! WE WILL NOT FORGIVE!” celebrates fortitude and heroism of Ukrainians. On 23 February 2023 the banknote marks the anniversary of the full-scale invasion, this dramatic, shocking and bullet-ridden year.
The main image of the front of the note are three Ukrainian soldiers who are hoisting a Ukrainian state flag (photo entitled “Ukrainian soldiers are hoisting a flag” by Oleksandr Smirnov) against the backdrop of fragments of a map of Ukraine and the flags of the countries that support Ukraine. Above are the following texts (with a laurel wreath between them) in Ukrainian and English:
"On 24 February, a new stage of armed aggression against Ukraine began with a full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the russian army. The people’s war for the independence and sovereignty of Ukraine has been going on since 2014. This is also a war for a civilizational choice: Ukraine is defending its place in European civilization, and at the same time fighting for the fundamental values, rights and freedoms that underpin the Western world".
The original envelope and the banknote itself also features words of the well-known Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko:
And on the renewed land there will be no enemy...
