Zelensky : Russia Respects American Power
President of Ukraine addressed the nation
The Gaze reports on it according to the President's official site.
It was a massive attack – and it’s particularly cynical that Russia carries out such attacks while discussions on how to end the war are ongoing. America is very active, Europe is too, and so are our other partners. Everyone shares the same agenda – yet only Moscow invariably keeps the war against Ukraine as their top priority. Strikes like the one today confirm this.
We must ensure Ukraine’s resilience. These are absolutely concrete tasks. Air defense is necessary. Defense packages are necessary for us. I want to thank each partner for joining the PURL initiative, which enables us to procure American weapons, including missiles for the Patriot systems. Last night, our air defense performed quite well – intercepting cruise missiles, as well as ballistic missiles, and an aeroballistic one. Over 400 attack drones were also shot down. To be capable of doing this, we need the appropriate resources, and together with our partners, we are ensuring that our state, Ukraine, has such capabilities.
We also worked with the Ukrainian negotiating team today on the text of the document prepared with the United States in Geneva. The principles in this document can be developed into deeper agreements. And it is in our shared interest that security is real.
I count on continued active cooperation with the American side and President Trump. Much depends on the United States because it’s America's strength that Russia takes most seriously.
As the Gaze reported earlier Ukraine, US Reach Consensus on Most Issues, Leave Others for Presidential Review
