It is Putin alone who is interested in these killings. Every day, this war remains solely his war – the war of Russia alone. And we expect the world to draw conclusions from this.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy accepted the letters of credence of the newly appointed ambassadors: Michalis Firillas of Cyprus, Andrejs Pildegovičs of Latvia, and Kanwar Adnan Ahmed Khan of Pakistan.

We are planning our foreign policy activity for the second half of September and October. The priorities are clear: air defense and the full implementation of the decisions of the recent Ramstein meeting, as well as our agreements reached with partners in Washington and Paris.

Russia could have ended this war long ago – and we have proposed this. Partners have proposed this. Many times. Russia has rejected everything related to peace. Accordingly, we are defending ourselves.
