Obviously, the Russian leadership is still trying to provoke these crises. Without our export, the global market deficit will be very noticeable. And not just for the poorest countries. Different countries feel: from Libya and Egypt to Bangladesh and China. We work with our partners to prevent it.
For our part, we develop variants of action, arrangements in order to preserve both the Ukrainian global role of the guarantor of food security, and our marine outputs to the world market, and workplaces for Ukrainians in ports and agricultural industry. We fight for the world security and for our Ukrainian farmer.
By the way, the day before he met with representatives of African media-print editions, radio, television-from the South African Republic, from Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, Gana, Benin, Cot-Dyivaru. They were not only in Kiev - they visited both Kherson and Bucha, communicating with the native victims of this war. Every time journalists from other countries come to Ukraine and see with their own eyes the consequences of Russian aggression, they return home with the truth about this war.
And we talk to them during the interview not in English or French - no, we speak the language of truth, and it helps us to keep and increase the world's attention to Ukraine, to our struggle for freedom. We spoke to African media, in particular, about the situation with grain exports, Russian aggression against global food stability. I am grateful to everyone and everyone in the world, who honestly tells my audience about what has been seen in our region, in our country.
Of course, there were reports of the military, intelligence, security services, the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The question is clear - the situation in the front line, all hot areas - from Kupyansky to Kherson region, Donetsk region, southern regions of Zaporizhzhya region. They considered the issue of ammunition supply and protection against Russian rocket and drone. I want to thank our air forces and all defenders, defenders of the sky from other species and families of troops.
Thank you for every whipped Russian missile, for every shotgun, for saved the lives of our people and infrastructure, in particular in Odessa and the region. Particularly grateful to the 160th Odessa and 208th Kherson anti-aircraft missile brigades, the 302th anti-aircraft missile Kharkiv Regiment and the soldiers of the 14th Radiotechnical Brigade named after Bohdan Khmelnitsky for timely detection of goals.
Thank you! And every fact of using components from the countries of the free world for the production of weapons of Russian terrorists, in particular rockets and "Shahmed" . . . Every such fact will be our argument that there are not enough sanctions, pressure against Russia. The world should so limit trade relations with the terrorist state that no component from the free world can be used for terror.
I held an important meeting today on the spiritual independence of Ukraine, our further steps to protect the rights and legitimate interests of Ukrainian citizens in the sphere of religious relations. News will soon be. We continue to work on the preparation of the doctrine of Ukraine, on our post -war transformation and today's decisions for helping our people.
The Minister of Health and the Minister of Social Policy presented me with the concept of creating a network of rehabilitation centers in Ukraine. Different levels and functionality, but absolutely necessary rehabilitation services. The implementation has already begun. Ministers will present all the details. He met with the head of the Japanese Agency for International Cooperation. It is one of the largest institutions of support for economic and social development in the world.
Her work is similar to work, for example, an American USAID, which is already known in Ukraine. The Japanese Agency is currently implementing an emergency recovery program in Ukraine and the volume of the program is half a billion dollars. In general, since the start of full -scale aggression, this Japanese agency has already provided support for more than a billion dollars to Ukraine.
And we have the potential for increasing cooperation - this is what we said: mine, energy, infrastructure projects, education. It is very important - the construction of rehabilitation centers to overcome the consequences of war. And one more. He signed the decrees on the awarding of our soldiers. Seven decrees. In total, 1255 soldiers. Combat crews and units. Different sections of the front.
Equally the highest bravery! Since February 24, nearly 51 thousand Ukrainian soldiers have been awarded state awards. I thank everyone who fights for Ukraine! Glory to all our heroes! Everyone who is fighting for Ukraine, who trains our soldiers, who treats and restores after injuries. I thank everyone in the world who helps! And thank you all the partners for today's Ramstein, and especially the US Secretary of Defense Austin for very clear, unambiguous and powerful statements.
