New security agreements should be strong for Ukraine. The state is creating a new security architecture that will help not just here and now, but in the long term. And this is something that Ukraine never had, although it was always necessary.
This was stated by President Vladimir Zelensky in an evening video message following the results of 722 days of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine.
— Today I held several preparatory meetings before our international activities. Right now we're on our way. Significant meetings with partners are planned. New agreements. We are doing everything to make them strong for Ukraine, and I’m sure that’s exactly what will happen, — stated the head of state.
Now watching
Border situation with Poland
The President instructed Prime Minister of Ukraine Denis Shmygal to urgently talk with his Polish counterpart.
— We perceive as an obvious violation of the principles of solidarity what happened and continues in relation to our citizens and Ukrainian cargo. Ukrainian grain on asphalt — it's not just a few dramatic shots. This is a testament to how emotions can become dangerous, — Zelensky believes.
Ukraine must, no matter what, defend good neighborliness and solidarity, which change the history of all of Europe for the better. In his opinion, it is necessary, together with Poland, to determine a common attitude, in particular, towards the import of Russian grain and other imports from the Russian Federation into the territory of European countries in order to protect our societies, Ukrainian and Polish farmers.
— And they must always agree among themselves — Ukrainians and Poles, so that our common enemy in Moscow cannot start conflicts in the borderlands against the economy, borders, sovereignty of each of us, — the President emphasized.
Battles in Avdeevka
The head of state heard a report from the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexander Syrsky and the Minister of Defense Rustem Umerov.
— The situation at the front — Avdeevka, east in general. We are doing our best to ensure that our soldiers have enough managerial and technological capabilities to save as many Ukrainian lives as possible. Signed several decrees on new replacements in the Ukrainian Defense Forces. More combat experience of this war and modern approaches, — stated the President.
