No day should be lost because every day the Russian diplomacy is lost - these are the lost lives of people - the Presidential address

Absolutely strange, to be honest, the position. No understanding of format. Apparently, they in Moscow have generally got away from diplomacy. They constantly do something to prove that they are the most inadequate subject in the world. But this is what convinces everyone that a new pressure is needed - pressure on Russia. Today, I am planned to talk with Turkish President Erdogan. We try to add real content to a possible meeting.

No day should be lost, because every day the Russian diplomacy is lost by Russians. Today, there was a meeting with American senators Grame and Blumental. A good meeting. I thank this support - Ukraine's support - for two -party support and diplomacy and attempting to bring moral clarity to the situation. It was Russia who started this war. It is Russia that should stop the murder and destruction of life. It is very important when it sounds in the media. Sounds in Congress.

Sounds in all influential offices of the world. In the future, Russia will speak ultimatum in the language, if they are trying to blackmail - to blackmail the continuation of the war, Russia should receive a strong answer - the United States of America, the answer of Europe, the answer of everyone in the world, who wants peace and who, by the way, declared support for ceasefire and diplomacy.

I thank everyone in America who works for the sake of worthy and honest peace, and peace as soon as possible. Today, together with the Minister of Foreign Affairs Sibgig and the Presidential Office team, they coordinated meetings, coordinating negotiations next week with our partners in the European Union. In all directions, take the most active actions. This is a task for everyone. And still important.

It is quite a long time - and, unfortunately, more inertia than sincerely - in Ukraine on June 1, the Day of Protection of Children was celebrated. Although more and more public organizations, educational institutions have been paying attention to the World Day of the Child, which is celebrated in the fall, November 20. I signed a decree synchronizing Ukrainian practice with the world.

It was on November 20 that the Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1959 and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989 were adopted. But what we will do soon in June - in the first days of June - so we will begin to reward not only adults who have shown themselves but also children. The courage of Ukrainian children, sustainability, often - the adult children are accurately deserving of recognition, gratitude.

In Ukraine, there will be a special distinction - the Future of Ukraine, and Elena and I will hand it to our boys and girls for the first time next week. Those who helped the rescue of people. Who showed their own extreme stability. And by whom we can all only be proud of. Next week we personally thank them on behalf of all Ukraine, and we will make such a distinction, such a gratitude to our new tradition. Thank you who with Ukraine! Thank you all who protect our country and all our people.
