In winter, Russia is preparing for an energy blow to Europeans; The answer should be our unity and increased pressure - the Presidential Appeal of Ukraine

Ukrainians! Ukrainians! Today, a good result in our air forces - knocked down "calibers", shock rifts of the invaders, drones. I want to thank all our defenders and defenders of the sky from the East Air Command. You are good - today and always. Each such result is the lives of our citizens saved, the opportunity not to be afraid for all our people. We will do our best for Ukraine to fully protect its sky from Russian rockets and aviation. This is one of the fundamental issues for our country.

And, of course, we are grateful to all our partners who help with the answer to this difficult question. Helping Ukraine with air defense is the most accurate, most obvious way to protect people from Russian terror. Hard fighting continues in many sections of the front - both in Kharkiv, Donbass, and in the south of our country. Russian troops were again beat in Mykolaiv region, in the districts of Zaporizhzhya, Dnipropetrovsk regions, in Kharkiv.

Unfortunately, there are sacrifices, unfortunately, there are children. Ukrainian artillery does everything to destroy the impact potential of the invaders, so that every Russian headquarters and all their ammunition depots, all logistics routes in the occupied territory were neutralized. I thank our soldiers who provide it. Today, in particular, I would like to mention the soldiers of the 55th Artillery Brigade in the Donetsk direction-for the apt fire on the enemy.

I thank our intelligence and the Security Service of Ukraine for the accuracy of our answers on positions and objects of the invaders. Unfortunately, today we have an absolutely unacceptable event in the city of Chernihiv. In the afternoon, a grenade launcher worked in the city center in the city center. Among the victims are children. A little boy is now in a serious state in intensive care. Law enforcement officers should find out why it happened, who brought combat weapons to this city event.

All guilty should be held accountable. And they will. And I call on local authorities across the country, all our law enforcement officers are very careful to watch so that it will never be repeated anywhere else. These days, Russia is trying to increase energy pressure on Europe even more - the North Stream gas has been completely stopped. Why do they do it? Russia wants to destroy the normal life of every European - in all countries of our continent.

He wants to weaken and intimidate the whole of Europe, every state. Where Russia cannot do it with the power of ordinary weapons, it makes it the power of energy weapons. He tries to hit poverty and political chaos where he cannot hit rockets yet. And to protect ourselves, we all need even more unity in Europe, even more coordination, even more assistance to each other. This winter, Russia is preparing for a decisive energy blow to all Europeans.
