This week, air raid alerts have sounded almost daily across Ukraine. Just last night, our air defense forces managed to shot down nearly 50 strike drones. Over the past week, Russia has launched more than 800 guided aerial bombs, around 460 strike drones, and over 20 missiles of various types against Ukraine and our people.

Ukraine is not a testing ground for weapons. Ukraine is a sovereign and independent state. Yet, Russia persists in its attempts to destroy our people, sow fear and panic, and weaken us.

Ukraine needs more air defense systems, and we are actively working with our partners on this. Strengthening the protection of our skies is absolutely critical.

I thank everyone around the world who understands this and continues to stand with Ukraine.

Today in Bucha, I said that we all want to end this war as soon as possible, with guaranteed security, lasting peace, and dignity. What does “with dignity” mean? That Russia must not gain any benefit from this war, and must not evade just accountability for what it has done. Image

We are in Bucha—a Ukrainian city where the world, three years ago, began to understand the full scale of Russia’s aggression against Ukraine.
The world then saw civilians who had been killed on the streets of Bucha, saw evidence of abuse and torture—proof that this was not just one country waging war against another, but a full-scale clash between two systems: our shared European system, where human life and dignity matter, and Russia’s system, where anyone can be killed, abused, and stripped of their home.

During the leaders’ meeting in France on support for Ukraine I emphasized that the war is still ongoing — and it’s only happening because of Russia, whose position is simple: keep the war going, keep attacking, and delay diplomacy. Image
Right now, there are U.S. proposals on the table — including one for a full and unconditional ceasefire. We agreed to it. But of course, Russia rejected it and threw-in a bunch of nonsense conditions nobody-asked-for.
The same goes for the idea of a ceasefire in the Black Sea. Russia is trying to push their own conditions onto our partners, but those conditions are unrealistic. Lifting sanctions on Russia now would be a disaster for diplomacy. Sanctions are one of the few real tools the world has to pressure Russia into serious talks.

I want to personally thank President @EmmanuelMacron and the entire French nation for their unwavering, principled, and meaningful support for Ukraine.
Right now, much can and must be done to ensure true security in Europe and stability for all our people—together with France and all partners in Europe and beyond.Image
This is a historic moment. It’s about how today’s generation of European leaders will shape the security system of our continent for decades to come. This is exactly what we’re working on—defending against Russian aggression, establishing sustainable peace, and building reliable security guarantees for our Europe.
Today, President Macron and I are continuing our bilateral work, and we are also preparing for tomorrow’s meeting with other European leaders. With each such meeting, our cooperation becomes more concrete and substantive—our interaction as a coalition of those who have the will and capacity to defend their nations and common security.

I addressed the European Council and emphasized that if we say Europe should be stronger in global competition, we must also discuss making European decision-making faster, more flexible, more effective – whether in politics, defense, economics, industry, or any other area.
Last night, Russia launched a massive drone attack on Ukraine—171 strike drones, mostly Shaheds. Their target was our infrastructure. And in the city of Kropyvnytskyi, in central Ukraine, residential buildings, a church, and a school were damaged. Among the wounded—four children.
Yesterday evening, another Russian strike hit our energy infrastructure. We in Ukraine face this every day and night. And despite Putin’s words about being “ready to stop attacks”—nothing has changed.

Answering journalists’ questions in Kyiv after the meeting of the leaders, I mentioned that many partners acknowledged Ukraine’s significant diplomatic progress in Jeddah. Image
Now, it will be difficult for Russia to wriggle out. If Russia agrees to a ceasefire, it must demonstrate its willingness to end the war, or it will show that it wants to continue. This is what everyone is waiting for.
I want to thank President Trump and the American delegation. This process must continue. Everyone agrees with Ukraine’s position, and this position has now become shared. If we talk about a ceasefire, and Ukraine takes this step, it should be an unconditional ceasefire for 30 days, as proposed by the American side. We support this to prepare a plan for a sustainable and just peace.

I addressed the meeting of European leaders stating that the path to peace must begin unconditionally. And if Russia doesn’t want this, then strong pressure must be applied until they do. Moscow understands one language. Image

Since Tuesday, a proposal for a ceasefire has been on the table — a silence from war in the air, at sea, and on the frontlines. This is an American proposal — a full, unconditional ceasefire for 30 days. In that time, without killings, it would truly be possible to negotiate all aspects of a real peace.
We talked about who would delay peace and slow everything down — and now we see it clearly. A ceasefire could have already happened, but Russia is doing everything to prevent it.
