Ukraine will not just wait for Russia to ripen before the end of the war - Presidential appeal

  We spoke with Turkish President Erdogan yesterday. Of course, everyone in the world wants diplomacy to work and that there is really ceasefire. Everyone wants Russia to stop playing with diplomacy and ending the war. Everyone wants serious peace, and Russia has to go. This is what the meetings should be. We gave our adzed.   We hope that the US side will be decisive in the issue of sanctions to help peace. So far, we only see new Russian strikes and new Russian assaults.

  Today there was a report by the head of Syrsky. The situation on the front remains difficult - in some directions we fix increased Russian activity. The most serious battles in the Pokrovsky direction, the Liman direction, Kupyansky. We continue our Kursk operation, which keeps a significant number of Russian troops from activity in Ukraine. The war should enter the territory of Russia - to where it came from.

  I want to thank our soldiers today for their sustainability, I want to thank everyone for the accuracy. According to the results of the week, I note first of all the assault regiments that operate in the Kurshchyna. It is the 33rd, 225th and 425th separate assault regiments. Also in this direction among the best 103rd a separate territorial defense brigade.

Thank you! In the Pokrovsky direction, the soldiers of the 1st assault regiment are especially effective, and in the Toretsky direction there are good results in the 100th separate mechanized brigade. Well done! And of course, the 82nd separate airborne-assaulty Bukovyna brigade. Thank you guys!  We are very active to ensure that our defense forces are guaranteed. Weapons - production and supply, finances, training - we form new arrangements with partners for every need.

  Sweden's particular gratitude for this week: we are actively moving within the supported support packages. Germany: Very good investment arrangements and our Ukrainian weapons production. The Netherlands work to supply F-16. Britain directs profits from frozen Russian assets precisely the equipment for Ukraine. All these are billions of dollars that strengthen our country's protection, strengthen our people.   Next week we prepare agreements with the Baltic States and Northern Europe.
