The key task of our country and our partners is to strengthen in Russia the feeling that it will not be able to achieve anything in Ukraine - President Vladimir Zelensky's address

I wish health, dear Ukrainians! A few hours ago, he held a regular rate meeting. New participants of the meeting were involved. In particular, Acting Minister of Internal Affairs, Head of the National Police of Ukraine Igor Klimenko. It keeps all that depends on the Ministry of Internal Affairs system in matters of our defense and security.

The rates also participated in the meeting today by the heads of some regional military administrations - they reported on the implementation of the national resistance law. These are Volyn, Zhytomyr, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhia, Odesa regional military administrations. I think it is clear why such geography. Each element of our defense, including territorial defense, must be properly established.

Of course, the commander, as well as the commander of the hottest operational direction at the front - Khortytsia, reported on the pond. We take appropriate steps to strengthen our units in the battle for the Donbas. By the way, today I will note the successes of the border guards of Lugansk and Kramatorsk detachments, who, together with other fighters of defense and security forces, are fighting in the Donetsk direction, defending Bakhmut.

Thank you guys, for your stability and the ability to cause the enemy exactly such losses that gradually deprive the meaning of attacks of invaders! I thank the soldiers of the Special Forces "Dozor" of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine for the effective restraint of the enemy! Now the key task of our country, all of us and our partners is to strengthen the sense of the state daily that they will not be able to achieve anything in Ukraine. No matter how much time they take to the war.

Whatever the forces they spend and how much their people would throw the Kremlin's owners on the battlefield. This task consists of different elements - both defensive and political. But one of the most important elements is tanks. Modern Western tanks, which we agree with our partners. And I thank everyone who has already made appropriate decisions. I thank Mr. President of the European Council Charles Michel, who was in Kiev today and who very clearly calls for Europe to make a decision on tanks.

And the corresponding coalition of partners is actually formed, and now we are waiting for a solution from one European capital, which activates prepared chains of cooperation on tanks. I believe that the power of German leadership will remain unchanged. Today, speaking in the Verkhovna Rada, Charles Michel again confirmed that there is no alternative to the common future of Ukraine and the European Union. “Without independent and safe of Ukraine, it cannot be independent in Europe.

There can be no free Europe without free Ukraine. We have a common future. " This is exactly how Mr. President of the European Council said, and this can be the motto of our relations, our integration processes this year. We are preparing another Summit of Ukraine - the EU, which is planned for early February. We also prepare the beginning of negotiations on Ukraine's membership in the European Union - there are all prerequisites for these negotiations to start this year.
