President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with current OSCE Chairman-in-Office, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland Zbigniew Rau.

Japan's support is very important and valuable for Ukraine in the fight against the Russian aggressor, because the Ukrainian and Japanese people share the courage and willingness to fight for their land. This was stated by Head of the President's Office Andriy Yermak in an interview with Japan's largest national broadcaster, the NHK TV channel.

The President of Ukraine separately informed Jens Stoltenberg about the situation on the battlefield and the need for Ukraine to quickly receive more heavy weapons from NATO member states in order to successfully repulse Russian attacks and proceed to a further counteroffensive.

"We must constantly tell the world how war takes away childhood from our children. We will emphasize to the international community that Russia regularly violates the Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in Ukraine. Russia damaged more than 2,000 educational institutions. But these are only buildings. Since February, it has nullified the educational process in principle, forced our children to hide in bomb shelters, starve and flee abroad. The world should hear about it and remember it every day," said Olena Zelenska.

The implementation of the Initiative on the export of Ukrainian grain and other agricultural products from our ports in the Black Sea began today. The first vessel carrying 26,000 tons of corn left the port of Odesa. As of now, it is too early to draw any conclusions and predict further events. But the port started working, the export traffic started.

Andriy Yermak and Jacob Sullivan agreed on the need to organize a conversation between the leaders of Ukraine and the United States - Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Joseph Biden - in the near future.

As part of the continued dialogue, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy had a phone conversation with President of France Emmanuel Macron. The substantive negotiations lasted one and a half hours.

Strategically, Russia has no chance of winning this war. And it is necessary to hold on, so that even at the tactical levels, the terrorist state feels its defeat. We have to hold on in the south, in the east and everywhere. We have to hold on in defense, diplomacy and politics. To preserve our unity.

At this stage of the war, terror is the main weapon for Russia. And that is why the main task of every Ukrainian, every defender of freedom and humanity in the world is to do everything to isolate the terrorist state and to protect as many people as possible from Russian attacks.

First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska summarized the results of the charity fundraising for ambulance vehicles, which was started on the UNITED24 platform on the eve of the second Summit of First Ladies and Gentlemen, which took place on July 23. In an interview with the 1+1 TV channel, Zelenska said that the event helped raise about UAH 200 million.
