The faster in Ukraine the peace will be achieved through our victory, the less evil Russia will have time to bring other regions - President Vladimir Zelensky's address
I am grateful to German Chancellor Scholz and the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Lien for the fact that today's event in Berlin is very meaningful. We expect specific solutions. It's time not to stop, and winter is close. In Croatia, the Crimean Platform - at the Parliamentary Level, has begun today. It is an additional and very powerful level of work of our tool for de -occupation, reintegration of Crimea.
Parliament always embodies democracy, represents different communities of each country. Therefore, when parliaments help to restore territorial integrity, when, thanks to parliamentary cooperation, you can direct expert work and exchange of experience into the right reservoir, it is very powerful. We will definitely free Crimea. We will return this part of our country not only to the national space, but also to the pan -European. Today it was confirmed again.
And I am grateful to all our partners - which are almost 50 states and international organizations - which help in the parliamentary format. I am grateful and separately Croatia for hospitality for our Crimean platform. He held a meeting with representatives of the Jewish community today - the American, European and, of course, Israeli.
They talked about the protection of our people, the need to prevent Russian terror and end this war as soon as possible with guaranteeing full security and freedom for all Ukrainians throughout Ukraine. The faster the peace will be reached due to Ukrainian victory, the less evil Russia will have time to bring other regions, including the Middle East in its community with Iran.
I believe that one day this position will be heard by Israeli politicians, as the society of Israel has already heard - we feel it. The protection of historical memory in Ukraine was discussed separately. Despite the war, we must continue the implementation of our programs that return historical justice. We started the implementation of an important project to honor the victims of Nazism - the construction of a memorial in Babi Yar. We will definitely complete.
He had very meaningful negotiations with the President of Germany, who arrived in Ukraine. President Steinmeyer visited Chernihiv region - districts that were in occupation. He was caught there by air anxiety. And in fact, Russian rocket terror, the use of the enemy of Iranian drones is what was one of the main topics in our negotiations. We are very grateful to Germany for the air defense system already provided to us - modern and effective. We expect new the same systems.
They discussed the full range of our interaction - defense, political, financial. Much attention was paid to reconstruction - and I am grateful to the President Steinmeyer for his willingness to personally patronized this work. We will strengthen cooperation with Germany in the field of reconstruction. And at the level of local authorities it will also receive a presidential patronage. And one more. Just before writing this appeal, he spoke with the new Prime Minister of British Rice Sunak.
I believe that the partnership between our states and the traditional British leadership in protecting democracy and freedom will continue to intensify. Ukraine and Britain have reached the best relations as of this time, but we still have the potential to increase our cooperation to give more benefits to our societies. He invited Mr. Prime Minister to visit Ukraine.
