*Military briefings were given by Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi, Chief of the General Staff Barhylevych, and Ukraine’s Defense Minister Umerov. The current combat situation across all fronts was discussed, with particular attention, of course, to the Donetsk directions. Although we are also seeing Russian activity in the south of Ukraine. The Defense Forces must ensure a response. Today, we discussed the Kursk operation separately. It will soon be three months of our active operations in the Kursk region. And this is important, as we keep this “sanitary zone” in designated areas near our state border. It is essential to recognize the significance of this operation – Kursk operation – in replenishing our “exchange fund.” It helped a lot to liberate our people from Russian captivity. I thank all the soldiers, sergeants, and officers involved in our active operations in the Kursk region. Today, there was also a separate report from the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine and the Foreign Intelligence Service on the North Korean troops in the territory of Russia. There are already 11,000 of them in the Kursk region. We are seeing an increase in North Koreans but, unfortunately, not an increase in our partners’ response.*
*Today, I also held a meeting of the Staff. A key issue discussed was air defense. Everyone can see how much more the Russians are using “Shaheds” and aerial bombs. This terror is increasing every month. We need more countermeasures. This includes strengthening mobile fire groups, introducing the real practice of shooting down “Shaheds” with drones, and developing our forces in such a way as to finally solve the problem of Russian aerial bombs. There are urgent decisions that need to be implemented. And there are also more strategic matters that will be taken into account in Ukraine’s internal Strengthening Plan, in the relevant defense clause. Today, there were also many questions about increasing the production of our weapons, primarily drones and missiles. We are expanding contracts for Ukrainian manufacturers and creating long-term opportunities for them to produce these weapons and invest in developing such manufacturing. Relevant instructions have been given to the Defense Minister and the Staff.*
*And a few more things.*
*I had a conversation with the President of Moldova. I congratulated Maia Sandu on winning the election and, in general, on the fact that Moldova’s commitment to true sovereignty has stood the test. For all the countries in our region, real security, real social justice, and real poverty alleviation are only possible through true integration into the common European space. The European Union is a global actor, one of the most attractive markets in the world, and a genuine defender of human rights and opportunities for every community. Of course, there are various internal issues and contradictions in Europe as well. But a choice – when it is a European choice – is always a choice in favor of a normal life. Something that has never existed and will never exist under regimes like the one in Moscow. Therefore, it is important that Moldova remains with Europe, and we in Ukraine are always ready to support our friends on the path of integration.*
*Today I spoke with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. I thanked him for supporting our country and our people. Recently, our team presented the details of the Victory Plan in Canada. Canada supports the Victory Plan – both the motives of Ukraine and the urgency of this plan. I thanked him for the conference held in Canada on the return of all our prisoners and deportees. Adults and children.*
*I also had a meeting in Kyiv with German Foreign Minister Baerbock. I thanked her for all of Germany’s support for Ukraine. We discussed the current situation in Europe as a whole and in our region, focusing on how to put pressure on Russia to bring peace closer.*
*And one more thing. Today is a professional holiday for almost two hundred thousand Ukrainians – all employees of Ukrainian Railways. I had the opportunity to congratulate them and thank them. Please, let’s not forget to always express gratitude to people like them – those who work in such essential sectors that keep everything else in the country running. I am proud of our people!*
Volodymyr, I am so sorry for us Americans failing you. I can only hope after tomorrow, you realize to send everything we have at the Ruzzians, as you have nothing to lose. If Kamala wins, you will be ‘forgiven’, and given, more to send at the ruzzians. Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the Heros.
Fucking absolutely gross.
This is not acceptable, NATO, EU where are you guys? This is super stupid, staying silence is agreeing with Putin terrorizing Ukraine.
Can Zelenskyy show up at the next NATO summit and let all western leaders inspect his balls so they’ll know what a pair looks like?
Everyone is waiting and watching the US election.
Everyone is waiting until the USA election results. Just hold on a little and when Kamala wins we’ll be there.
Do something more
Before the eyes of the civilized world, a criminal state is killing Ukraine, a sovereign European nation. While Ukraine bleeds, the world offers mere words of concern and token gestures, failing to uphold its proclaimed values or stop these atrocities.
What is the worth of such a world? Its actions – or lack thereof – will carry consequences, and the price will be steep when that day comes.
It’s over. Ukraine has been left hung out to dry. The EU doesn’t give a fuck about them. Russia and Putin win and the west sucks!
Didn’t the US just approve another aid package like 10 days ago?
Still waiting for this red line America keeps talking about.
This war has become Russia testing the West’s red lines and the West testing Russia’s red lines while Ukrainians fight and die for their home without the help they deserve.
I’d say wait until Wednesday. You might see something change
We coming friends. The election is here! 3 million door knockerscanvassers were on the ground over the weekend to get Madame President elected.
We had our own battle to fight with Putin’s dog.
WE ARE COMING TO HELP, JUST A FEW MORE DAYS
HOLD THE LINE
This is a practical declaration of war by North Korea.
Honestly, the US should be getting out donated by far by Europe. I mean, this is on Europe’s doorstep. I guess you are ok with North Korean troops nearby. Cannot make any decision as a bloc yourselves without US backing.
I swear some Ukrainians think shooting themselves in the foot will help their case. The US is massive and the 2 candidates have polar opposite views on Ukraine. Their best bet would be to just let it rest for a bit until the election was over.
This type of rhetoric doesn’t help.
Before the inevitable “The US isn’t the only country” its military dwarves every other countries and many of them combined. They basically lead Nato through finance.
You think other countries want to go all in without knowing where the US stands? It sucksa but thats how it is, and Europe just hasn’t ramped up to the wartime production levels that would be needed; semi pacifists until it’s too late.
A problem here is the North Korean deployment is made in a way that offers pessimists a way out.
15,000 is a big number but they are not under a separate command, is mostly light infantry parcled out as reinforcements to existing units and are deployed in sovereign Russian territory. Plus, they havent committed war crimes yet.
None of this is about winning wars or whatever.
This is all but a huge ass business deal taking place.
It will be over when the partners decide its over.
European boots on the ground needed
Well the partners are really busy saying how outraged they are! Maybe next we in the west will write a sternly worded letter!
NATO and the rest of the allies really missed the opportunity to lay the line down that any other nation enters Ukraine, so do we. I am just in disbelief that this is happening and the West is just watching.
