Russian intentions do not change, and it all depends on our warriors and anyone who helps the state - the Presidential Appeal

I am grateful to anyone who helps keep a relationship with America in the plane of reality. It is necessary to increase the pressure on Moscow. Sanctions should be strengthened. We need to look for options on how to use frozen Russian assets in favor of our defense. Russia understands only one language - the language of power. It is this language that should become working in all formats of international interaction in the coming months.

He spoke today and yesterday with the Minister of Defense Umerov, with the head of GUR Budanov, with the head of the Security Service of Ukraine toddler - Ukraine continues to do everything possible to release our captives and return our Ukrainian fallen soldiers. Unfortunately, there are still no full lists from Russia for a thousand people plus - what we agreed in Istanbul - unfortunately, there are no.

That is, the Russian side, as always, in its spirit - tries to play some dirty political and information game in these matters. It is important that the result is. It is important that people return home. We believe that you can continue the exchange track. And for our part, we do everything for that.

And if the Russians, even on such humanitarian issues, do not follow the agreements, then it will be a great doubt of all international efforts - and in particular the efforts of the United States - on negotiations and diplomacy. There was a report of Syrsky's head today. Pokrovsky direction, Liman direction, other directions in Donetsk region, also - a situation along the border of Ukraine in Sumy region, in Kharkiv region.

In some areas, the situation is very difficult, but it all depends on the stability of our units. I want to thank everyone and everyone who provides Ukrainian defense. Russian intentions do not change, and it all depends on our defense and security forces of Ukraine - on our soldiers, on anyone who helps the state. Especially during this week, I would like to celebrate the soldiers of the 68th Separate Eger Brigade and the 72nd Separate Mechanized Brigade for results in the Pokrovsky direction.
