On December 28, Head of State Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that right now is one of the most active diplomatic days of the year. According to the president, much can be decided before the New Year, but it also depends on the decisions of Kyiv's allies.
Points of attention
- The importance of supplying missiles for air defense to Ukraine as a crucial step in ending the war and ensuring security is emphasized by President Zelenskyy.
- Allies are urged to use all forms of political pressure to combat the aggression against peaceful Ukrainians and work towards ending the conflict.
Zelenskyy again addressed the world
According to the head of state, over the past week, Russian invaders have launched over 2,100 strike drones, about 800 guided aerial bombs, and 94 missiles of various types into Ukraine.
Everything is against our people, against life and everything that ensures its normality — first of all, against our energy infrastructure. Our repair crews, energy specialists, and rescuers of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine are working literally 24/7 to protect life and restore energy supply.
