Quote from Zelenskyy: New attacks on Sumy, Chernihiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia and Donbas oblasts; all this proves again and again that we need even more consolidation of the world to put pressure on Russia, even more strength for our soldiers to destroy every position of terrorists, and even more support for our people to save lives and restore security to our cities and villages."
Details: The president said that he had held several preparatory meetings on new steps to strengthen Ukraine's defence and international position.
He also reported that the visit of the Ukrainian delegation to the Republic of Korea was successful, where government officials and First Lady Olena Zelenska held meetings and negotiations at various levels.
Zelenskyy thanked the President of the Republic of Korea for "clearly condemning Russian aggression and supporting global efforts for peace".
He also noted "an important decision of the Council of Europe", particularly the fact that the final resolution of the summit held in Iceland recorded support for the Ukrainian peace formula.
"It is important that Europe is so consolidated for an honest peace plan. I thank all the leaders of Europe and every member state of the Council of Europe for this. Based on this consolidation, we will continue to limit the terrorist state's ability to continue its aggression and increase our opportunities to restore justice, liberate our land, and save our people," Zelenskyy concluded.
