Speeches

This Russian terror requires asymmetrical responses. We need a new movement of our forces at the front. We need to ensure the defeat of the terrorists' ground forces. Whatever the Russian occupiers are planning, our preparation must be stronger. We talk about it with our partners. And we discuss it at the meetings of the Staff.

I am grateful to all our allies for their willingness to provide us with modern and much-needed tanks. All this proves the most important fact for the world today - the fact that freedom is only getting stronger.

In order not to recognize the mistake of aggression, the masters of Russia want to throw more of their people and equipment into the fighting. This means that all of us in the free world must step up our cooperation.

There is a principled decision of the NSDC on officials traveling abroad. It applies to all officials of the central government and various other levels of local government. If they want to rest now, they will rest outside the civil service.

Global freedom has long been lacking global victories. Ukraine, together with the United States, along with our partners – is meeting this deficit.

These decisions have already been prepared. I don't want to announce them now, but it will all be fair. I understand what has drawn people's attention. In each situation, we will analyze everything in detail.

Today we celebrate the Day of Unity of Ukraine. This historical event passed on two pieces of wisdom to the next generations of Ukrainians. If the struggle is not stopped, sooner or later a unified and independent state will be restored. If true unity is not attained, independence will be lost.

You cannot bring back Ukrainians, patriots, and people who are professional and simply loyal to themselves and the state. I wish we could all feel that today. Feel how many lives, how many bright people have been taken by wartime. I would like us all to honor their memory today…

Join our initiative Grain from Ukraine. Get involved in the implementation of the Ukrainian Peace Formula.

The partners are firm in their attitude – they will support Ukraine as much as necessary for our victory.
