“I also want to thank all the partners of our state, who are responding to this and other Russian attacks by being ready to provide more air defense systems, more weapons that can protect against terrorists.

Dear Ukrainians, Ukrainian women!
I want to thank all the leaders, each of our partners, who today expressed support for Ukraine after another missile attack: ballistics on Kyiv, people were injured, unfortunately, there is a dead person. My condolences. Damaged houses, the church of St. Nicholas. There is also damage in the diplomatic missions – they are all located in the same office building. Albania, Argentina, Palestine, North Macedonia, Portugal, Montenegro. It is obvious that such Russian madness should not be perceived by the world as something common – everyday terror deserves more and more pressure on the terrorist. Russia must be held accountable, and even if they are led by a completely inadequate person, the Russian state, thanks to the pressure on it, must feel what reality is and how reality can punish international criminals. Greater sanctions against Russia are needed.
I also want to thank all the partners of our state, who are responding to this and other Russian attacks by being ready to provide more air defense systems, more weapons that can protect against terrorists. We have now returned from Brussels with new agreements on air defense. Also, Germany has already transferred the additional IRIS-T system – thank you. We will respond to Russia’s attacks on all our other cities as well – today the Russians carried out another barbaric shelling of Kherson. In general, we can see the activation of the occupier in the Kherson direction. I would like to thank the units that are defending these positions of ours. Attempts by Russian movements were repelled there.
Also today, the Holovkom reported to me about other directions of the front – both the Donetsk region and the Zaporizhia direction. Particular attention is paid to the fighting in Kurshchyna: more and more North Korean soldiers have been killed there. And this shows that Russia is trying to pass off these North Korean soldiers as representatives of national communities living on the territory of Russia itself. This is Moscow’s complete contempt for the indigenous peoples and for the Koreans themselves as well.
And one more thing.
Today there were several important meetings here in Kyiv. A meeting of the governments of Ukraine and Lithuania took place. The new Lithuanian government is the first full-fledged one in Ukraine immediately after the appointment, and this is a clear priority of Lithuania for the alliance between our countries; we in Ukraine appreciate it very much. I also spoke today with the President of the Czech Republic, in particular about how to increase the supply of shells and the production of weapons for our defense. And today, together with our diplomatic team, we approved the list of new Ukrainian ambassadors. I have agreed to more than 30 decisions. Among them Nariman Dzhelyal – to Turkey, Alyona Hetmanchuk – representative of Ukraine in NATO, Andriy Melnyk – representative of Ukraine in the UN and others. These and other decrees will follow shortly, according to diplomatic procedures.
Thank you to everyone who works for Ukraine!
Glory to Ukraine!
