The occupiers need to know: we will drive them to our border, the line of which has not changed - the appeal of the President of Ukraine

Ukrainians! Ukrainians! Today we honored the memory of our soldiers who gave our lives for our country, for our independence. This memory day was determined at the end of the summer, on August 29, to remind everyone of the tragic events of the 14th year, of Ilovaysk, that this war, which began with the occupation of Russia by our Crimea, should end with the effort to seize the Donbas.

There - in the liberated Crimea, in the liberated cities of Donbass, the entrance of our military to the state border of Ukraine. We have always remembered this purpose of our goal. We do not forget about it. The Armed Forces of Ukraine, our intelligence, our defense forces are doing their business. I am sure that you all understand what is happening, what we fight and what we want. And our warriors do not need any announcement or information waves. Ukraine returns its.

And it will return Kharkiv, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Crimea, necessarily - all our waters of the Black and Azov seas - from the Snake to the Kerch Strait. It will. It's ours. And just as our society understands, I want the occupiers to understand it. There will be no place on Ukrainian land. Someone wants to know what plans we have? You will not hear specifics from any truly responsible person. Because it is a war. And so - in the war.

But the invaders need to know: we will drive them to the border. To our border, the line of which has not changed. The invaders know her well. If they want to survive, it is time for the Russian military to run. Go home. If you are afraid to go home to Russia - well, let such invaders be captured, and we guarantee them the compliance with all the standards of the Geneva Conventions.

If they do not hear me - they will deal with our defenders who will not stop until they release everything that belongs to Ukraine. And it's not something special. It's not something that allegedly started. We talked about it 187 days. Today he held meetings with the military, with representatives of the military-industrial sector, with government officials. Important meetings, important topics, voice it - wrong. But the result is seen over time.

They see when our defenders destroy logistics, bases, command centers of the enemy. We will continue. He made three appeals to foreign partners today. The first is Norway. I participated in the energy forum, and I want to thank Norway Prime Minister Mr. Stere for a new package of support for Ukraine-about $ 200 million in energy preparation for winter. The second appeal is France. A powerful association of entrepreneurs - hundreds of thousands of businessmen, millions of owners, managers and workers.

I am grateful to them for the support and understanding of what we are fighting for in Ukraine and that this struggle is common to all Europeans. The third appeal is to the participants of the Security Forum in Slovenia, in particular, to our friends - leaders of Central Europe and Balkans. In the evening he signed a decree on the awarding of our soldiers. 141 The participant of the fighting was awarded with state awards, ten of them posthumously.
