Volodymyr Zelenskyy
President of Ukraine
Zelensky noted that the Ukrainian side took note of this information.
But it is worth noting specifically for the Russian leadership that Ukraine is not Russia, and unlike the aggressor country, where there is a clear author of this war and his long-standing environment, which ensures his detachment from reality, the source of Ukraine's protection is the willingness of the Ukrainian people to fight for their independence and their own independent state.
The Head of State emphasized that Ukrainians deserve their sovereignty just like any other nation.
The people cannot be defeated. Russia needs to end its war and negotiate a decent peace, not look for more ways to intimidate Ukraine.
In addition, the President reported that the meeting discussed defining goals for further long-range sanctions against Russia for this war and strikes against our cities and villages.
Ukraine will not leave each of the strikes that take the lives of our people without consequences for the aggressor. We are quite rightly responsible for the Russian oil industry, military production, and those individuals who directly commit war crimes against Ukraine and Ukrainians. I am grateful to our soldiers for their dedication to protecting Ukrainian interests and to all Ukrainian structures involved — for building a truly strong system of our long-range sanctions.
