Zelenskyy promised the occupiers a response for the shelling of Zaporizhzhia, Orikhiv and Kharkiv
The Russian army and Vladimir Putin have brought only degradation and death, but Ukraine will definitely regain control of all its temporarily occupied territories. This was announced by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in an evening video message.
The situation in Donbas
According to the head of state, Donetsk has always been one of the richest and strongest cities in Ukraine, and now Donbas is almost destroyed and devastated due to the constant strikes of the Russian army.
– The proud and glorious Ukrainian Donetsk was humiliated by the Russian occupation and robbed. Russia brought the most terrible thing there – absolute disregard for the value of any life, absolute disrespect for anyone. The invaders brought degradation and death. And they believe that they are there forever. But they are temporary, – the President is convinced.
He assured that Ukraine will definitely return, after which Ukrainians will finally be able to live happily and be safe.
– Life will return. The dignity of the people of Donbas will return. The ability to live will return. The ability to live safely and happily. This is exactly what our Ukrainian flag will symbolize when we set it up in Donetsk, Horlivka, Mariupol, in all cities of Donbas, Azov region, in all areas under Russian occupation – in Kharkiv region, Zaporozhzhia, Kherson region. And definitely – in Crimea. Ukraine remembers everything.
Meeting with security forces
Today, the President held a meeting with representatives of the defense and security sector, which was attended by the heads of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, intelligence, the Security Service, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, other structures and areas of defense of our state.
– All the issues we considered are important, but closed, I cannot go into detail. But the occupiers will feel its consequences in the further actions of our defenders. No terrorist will go unanswered for attacks on our cities. Zaporizhzhia, Orikhiv, Kharkiv, Donbas – they will receive an answer for all of them.
A new week for Ukraine
Zelenskyy noted that Ukrainians should prepare for a new and active week, during which important visits of partners to Ukraine are planned.
– I will resume the practice of appeals – to the states and nations that support us. And most importantly, we are working to have new restrictions for Russia for the war, to have new support packages for our defenders, for our state.
Defense support – weapons and ammunition, financial support, political, informational support, support for our reconstruction. Every day, every public official must demonstrate results in his area of responsibility.
According to him, only work for the result gives the right to occupy public positions. The President is convinced that this fact should be remembered by everyone who was given power.
