ADDRESS OF THE PRESIDENT OF UKRAINE, VOLODYMYR ZELENSKY
“Today I am in Canada together with Mr. Prime Minister Carney, as agreed. We are talking with our friends from Europe. I am grateful for all the support for Ukraine, and this especially concerns the support of air defense.
Russia continues to mock our cities and people. Moscow has rejected even proposals for a Christmas ceasefire and is escalating the brutality of its missile and drone strikes. This is a clear signal of how they really feel about diplomacy there. Not serious enough yet.
Therefore, a sufficient level of support is needed for Ukraine. And we also need a sufficient level of pressure on Russia. Importantly, today there is a new aid package from Canada. It is important that we have common positions on many key issues. Thank you!”.
We believe in the Armed Forces and help them! Together we are a force! Glory to Ukraine!
