ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT OF UKRAINE, VOLODYMYR ZELENSKY
The day started with a special format – now it will be like that every day, everyone is in touch. Special Selector – with anyone responsible for recovery and management in such an emergency. Energy, supply in cities and villages. From the government and the military to the oblasts, to the regional authorities, community leaders. Kyiv and the region, Kharkiv and the region, Dniprovshchyna – Dnipro, Kryvyi Rih; Zaporozhye, Sumy, Chernihiv. The tasks are defined, the government must give a decision during the day. First of all, to increase the import of electricity and all possibilities of backup supply and provision.
Support points in cities – there are separate tasks for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, including real information of people. So that everyone can contact the 112 line and get help, get information on heating and electricity supply. It is important that public institutions and authorities on the ground are in full communication with business, with energy companies โ with everyone who can now add resources for shared sustainability.
There should be solutions regarding the curfew – to make it easier for entrepreneurs to plan their work. And so that business objects can be used as support points for people. In particular, government officials have already spoken with trade networks.
I instructed the Prime Minister of Ukraine and the First Deputy Prime Minister, the Minister of Energy, and other government officials to be as active as possible in communication with society and to help communities as much as possible.
We believe in the Armed Forces and help them! Together we are a force! Glory to Ukraine!
