President of Ukraine

Speeches

Obviously, Putin is using Ukraine as a testing ground. Obviously, Putin is terrified when normal life simply exists next to him. When people simply have dignity. When a country simply wants to be and has the right to be independent.

The information frenzy that took place today, with some panic messages passed around – all this benefits only Russia. Please take care of yourselves, support our army, and be especially careful that no one manipulates your emotions for their own advantage. Meanwhile, we continue to strengthen our air defense.

European values and the European way of life – when transformed into action – protect the lives of real people.

1,000 days of this war. 1,000 days since Ukrainians kicked Putin in the teeth. We must end this war – and end it justly. But we must do it in a way that ensures Putin, no matter how toothless, never returns to Ukraine.

I am grateful to all sergeants who truly set an example for soldiers.

One of the Victory Plan's key points is long-range capabilities for  our army. Today, there’s a lot of talk in the media about us receiving permission for respective actions. But strikes are not carried out with words. Such things are not announced. Missiles will speak for themselves.

I also held another meeting today regarding the preparation of our internal Resilience Plan – a point on our Heroes Policy. The meeting was quite extensive – not just the Ministry of Veterans Affairs. All kinds of Government officials.

Preparations for the second Peace Summit are underway. Each state can take the initiative to implement any of the points. I believe that Colombia could make a significant contribution, for example, to ensuring environmental security in the world.

We continued to work on the points of our Internal Resilience Plan. Today, two fundamental points were covered: the frontline and human capital. Everything related to our defense.

There are ten points in total, which will be presented next week, and for each point, together with Ukrainian civil society, together with everyone ready to contribute rational ideas, together with business, we will prepare a foundational, doctrinal document for Ukraine, for our resilience.
