Speeches

In order to overcome terror, to return predictability and security to our region, Europe and the whole world, we need to win the fight against Russian aggression, and therefore we need to free Crimea from occupation.

I am grateful to all European politicians who do not forget that the eighth sanctions package against Russia is needed. The longer the interval between sanctions packages is, the greater Russia's audacity is.

Well, all of us - all Ukrainians - must remember one thing: no matter what, our goal is victory.

We must all be strong enough to resist any enemy provocations – as much as it takes to make the occupiers answer for all their blows and terror. We must all be strong enough to endure and go all the way to Ukrainian victory.

If Russian blackmail with radiation continues, this summer may go down in the history of various European countries as one of the most tragic of all time.

We can and should think only about how to win. To win on the battlefield, on the political front, in the information confrontation, in the economic plane, everywhere. Let’s believe in ourselves, help each other, protect the interests of Ukraine and know that there will be peace.

Ukraine is ready to ensure proper control of the IAEA, and the relevant mission can be sent to the Zaporizhzhia plant in a legal way, very fast and as efficiently as possible.

I ask you to spread only the truth – spread the truth about this war in your country and in your region. Demand full accountability for Russian murderers and executioners. Support sanctions against Russia. And most importantly, value peace, value life.

Do everything, as you have been doing, for Ukraine. And even more, because the leadership of Russia expects that Ukrainians, Europeans and the whole world will get tired of this war. We must do everything so that it is not us or our friends and partners who get tired, but our enemy.

Any radiation incident at the Zaporizhzhia NPP can affect the countries of the European Union, Turkey, Georgia and countries from more distant regions. If Russia's actions cause a catastrophe, the consequences may also hit those who remain silent so far.
