President of Ukraine

Speeches

It is very important that our defense and security forces, our entire state, work as a single team for the sake of defense.

There has never been a terrorist capable of overcoming the world, and these Kremlin madmen will not succeed either.

Every "cabinet" violation somewhere in the military hierarchy, any attempt to somehow get rich there humiliates our warriors, our heroes.

There will be an answer. In addition, there will be even more consolidation of the world for defense and for joint action, even more energy for victory, even more desire for justice, the just punishment of Russia for all the crimes of this war.

Every project that can be implemented at the expense of extra-budgetary resources should be implemented at the expense of extra-budgetary resources. This applies to various areas, including culture.

This was perhaps the largest attempt by Russia to inflict pain on Odesa in the entire period of full-scale war. This attack proves that their target is not only Ukraine, and not only the lives of our people.

The world must limit trade relations with a terrorist state to such an extent that no component from the free world can be used for terror.

I have sent official letters to President of Türkiye Erdoğan and UN Secretary General Guterres with a proposal to continue the Black Sea Grain Initiative or its analog in a trilateral format – as it is best.

Our country will never give up its sovereignty. This is already obvious to everyone in the world. And whatever the Russian terror may be, we know that Ukrainian freedom will still be preserved and will still prevail.

Now, when the speed of ending the war directly depends on global support for Ukraine, we are doing everything possible to ensure that such support is as intensive and meaningful as possible.
