Ukrainians endured nine months of the comprehensive-scale war and Russia has not uncovered a way to break us, President Volodymyr Zelensky has stated in his handle to the nation.
The entire textual content of the president’s handle is presented underneath:
Good wellness to you, fellow Ukrainians!
Restoration continues all day right now – we are gradually restoring electricity, warmth, drinking water source and conversation.
As of this night, there are nevertheless troubles with h2o in 15 regions.
The most challenging scenario is in the Kyiv, Kirovohrad, Dnipropetrovsk, Lviv, Poltava and Kharkiv locations. But collectively with the supply of energy to significant infrastructure, we also offer water and heat supply.
The problem with energy stays tricky in virtually all areas. But however, we are shifting away from the blackout minimal by minimal – each individual hour we restore electric power to new and new consumers.
It is even now the most complicated in the cash and 15 regions: Vinnytsia, Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Zakarpattia, Ivano-Frankivsk, Kyiv, Kirovohrad, Lviv, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Poltava, Ternopil, Kharkiv, Kherson, Khmelnytskyi. There are also issues in other locations.
Electricity workers, utility personnel, company – everybody is carrying out their part to give mild once more. This is genuinely a nationwide endeavor – Ukraine is operating as unitedly as doable in this.
Thanks to the Condition Unexpected emergency Services and our entire program of regional administrations for the rapid deployment of the community of Factors of Invincibility. In complete, as of now, 4,362 points have been introduced in most locations.
And this is not but the ultimate figure – the community will grow according to how the details will be supplied with generators and conversation.
Be sure to, if your city has been without having electrical energy or warmth for much more than 12 hours, use our Details of Invincibility.
Aid will also be delivered at all police stations, at the facilities of the State Emergency Company.
You should, if you know single or aged people who require help, be absolutely sure to support them in these conditions.
A pretty essential initiative was launched by our partners in the European Union. The European Parliament collectively with a community of European towns introduced the “Turbines of Hope” program. This will make it possible for us to use the opportunities of horizontal cooperation in Europe – with towns, with enterprises – and give Ukraine with the power devices it desires now.
I thank Mrs. Roberta Metsola, President of the European Parliament, and all our close friends in the European Union who have by now joined and are continue to signing up for.
I held another conference of the Workers now.
Electricity and interaction troubles ended up analyzed in great depth: the security of the energy method from new Russian strikes, restoration operate and the provide of products and the involvement of professionals.
Specific interest is paid to the interaction system. No issue what the terrorists are preparing, we have to maintain conversation.
Russia wishes Ukrainians to not just discover themselves devoid of light-weight and heat… Terrorists want to isolate us from just about every other so that we do not feel every other. For that reason, this is a basic issue.
And there will be additional choices relating to this problem. We are planning them.
Of program, the circumstance on the frontline was examined very thoroughly and in detail at the conference of the Team. No matter how difficult it may possibly be, we are holding the key frontiers in all directions. Our guys protect bravely. And there are instructions in which we are preparing to progress.
We observe how the occupiers are making an attempt to redeploy more forces. We do all the things to “subtract” these forces of theirs.
Just about just about every hour, I obtain reports of strikes by the occupiers at Kherson and other communities of the area. These types of terror began immediately right after the Russian military was forced to flee from the Kherson location. This is the revenge of those people who missing.
They do not know how to combat. The only detail they can even now do is terrorize. Possibly energy terror, or artillery terror, or missile terror – that’s all that Russia has degraded to under its existing leaders.
It is only the liberation of our land and trusted safety guarantees for Ukraine that can protect our persons from any Russian escalations.
We operate with companions just about every working day for this. There will be critical information before long.
I addressed the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly now – the assembly is now working in Poland.
I referred to as for the reform of this Organization so that it could ultimately assist restore safety in Europe.
The principle of choice-creating in the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly is that it is essential to agree on selections for several months and to persuade certainly anyone, even to deprive the delegation of a terrorist state of its legal rights. It definitely shouldn’t be so. During these types of a war, throughout these types of terror, selections from the responsible state ought to be created promptly.
I hope that the OSCE customers will listen to the Ukrainian attraction.
I had a phone with the President of Israel. I educated him about the effects of the Russian vitality terror, about the wants of our condition in view of this.
Ukrainian initiatives to prevail over the food disaster developed by Russia ended up also talked over. I invited Israel to be part of our “Grain from Ukraine” humanitarian task.
And, by the way, we now have precise agreements with distinct nations, different leaders, how to make this initiative of ours to provide meals to the poorest nations actually world-wide. Soon we will present all the particulars.
And one particular much more detail.
Currently, one more 50 Ukrainian warriors ended up freed from Russian captivity. Two officers, 48 privates and sergeants. 15 of them had been captured in the Kyiv location, on the territory of the Chornobyl nuclear ability plant. 7 have been captured on Zmiinyi Island. Last but not least they will all be residence.
I am grateful to Budanov, Yermak, Usov, Malyuk, Lubinets and anyone who will help.
And we will do definitely almost everything achievable and unattainable to return each and every Ukrainian male and lady who are nonetheless currently being held by the occupiers.
I thank every person who supports Ukraine in this particularly tough time!
Thank you to every person who fights and works for our state!
We endured nine months of the complete-scale war and Russia has not found a way to split us. And it will not find it. We must carry on to hold on like this in the long run! In unity and encouraging every other.
Glory to Ukraine!
