Dear Ukrainians, Ukrainians! Recovery after a Russian blow continues all day. A ...

The response to Russian terror can only be one: more power, air defense and pressure on Russia so that they are really responsible for everything - the President's appeal

Dear Ukrainians, Ukrainians! Recovery after a Russian blow continues all day. A lot of work. Electricity has already been resumed for more than 725 thousand families. Kyiv, Kyiv region, Dniprovschyna, Kirovohrad region, Cherkasy, Chernihiv. The situation in Sumy region remains. Also, Kharkiv, Kherson, Donetsk region - because of the security situation, repairs are complicated. During the day there were new attacks of drones, shelling, there were new air anxieties. The work is still in the capital.

Where it is needed, energy has introduced electricity schedules. Kyiv and Kirovohrad region - worked during the day to restore water supply. In Kiev, it is almost restored, in Kirovohrad region the pumps and filling of the network continue. Tasks for all our areas are to prepare sufficient backup power for water utilities. This is already being implemented in the community. And it should be where we now see the right issues.

Through today's blow, there are victims, in particular in Kiev and in the oblasts. On energy facilities. Everyone is assisted. In Zaporizhzhya, the Russians, unfortunately, killed a child - seven years were a boy. My condolences. Putin obviously uses the moment when the world now pays almost all the opportunity to establish peace in the Middle East. Most of the countries of the world, all key leaders focused on what is happening there.

And this is a really good chance to achieve a real peace after so many casualties in that region. And this is a new record of the Russian meanness - it is at this point that to increase terrorist strikes, to beat in the lives of our people. Only on the night there were almost 500 drones for several waves. About 200 of them are Shakhda, and also 32 rockets, and a large part is ballistics.

There can be only one answer, and it is more power, more aircraft to protect our critical infrastructure, and more pressure on Russia, so that they are really responsible for everything they do. There should be a strengthening of sanctions. We talked about it with partners. There must be a full use of Russian assets to strengthen our protection, to strengthen us, our recovery.

And today he spoke with the President of the European Central Bank Christine Lagarda about the financial capabilities of Ukraine support. They also talked about our energy, our stability. I had a conversation today with President of Finland Stubb. He met with the President of the United States the day before. We have discussed what our steps are now, what contacts can help protect life and calm this terrorist in Moscow.

He spoke with the Prime Minister of Britain as an old man, and we count on strong British support in these difficult circumstances. They talked about Britain's possible involvement in Purl. This is a strong program that enables us to buy American weapons. This is very important. Something that protects. In particular, these are missiles for Petriots. And today I spoke with German Chancellor Friedrich Martz. He informed about the situation, the consequences of the Russian blow.

I am very grateful to him, grateful to Germany for the air defense systems that are already working to protect Ukraine. We discussed with Mr. Chancellor Russian intentions and our common opportunity to defend and defend ourselves. I am grateful for the support of all partners who really help - help actions, not just help words. He spent the bet today. Of course, about energy. This is a key question.

But there were reports on the front: in the areas of Dobropillya our forces broke another Russian attempt to hit our positions. I held a meeting with all those responsible for the international direction: the government, the head of the office Andriy Yermak, the NSDC Secretary. The task is clear. We know them. What countries can help Ukraine with additional air defense systems and missiles. And this requires exactly the result that I spoke with the leaders.

At the level of the agreement, we have we, we need work at the level of all our teams and need appropriate results. We know what other countries can join Purl and I expect specific communication results with these countries. And our diplomats should be even more active about this. And the third is sanctions. Pause without new strong sanctions against Russia for the war was too long.
