Zelensky thanked the defenders of the country and ordinary Ukrainians who are not afraid to resist the occupier.
President Vladimir Zelensky stressed that no one will give peace to Ukrainians, we must get it in the struggle, it is useless to hope that the enemy will simply leave, he explained in an address at the end of 38 days of heroic confrontation between Ukraine and the Russian aggressor.
“Another day of our defense has passed. Another day of many who are gradually, hard, but steadily bringing us closer to the world. To a world that no one will give us. We must be aware of this very clearly with you. For there are no people in the world who they are able to stop wars and give peace, ”the president said.
The President assured that peace for us will not be a consequence of any decisions of the enemy somewhere in Moscow. We should not cherish empty hopes that they will simply leave our land. Peace can be obtained only in hard battles and in parallel – in negotiations, and in parallel – in daily vigorous work.
The President also said that the heroic defense of Mariupol won time to weaken the occupier. This time is needed to break the enemy's tactics.
“We are strengthening our defenses in the east and in Donbass. We realize that the enemy has reserves to increase pressure in the east of the state. What is the goal of Russian troops? They want to capture Donbass and southern Ukraine. What is our goal? To protect us, our freedom.” “Our land, our people,” Zelensky added.
Zelensky also thanked those who are protesting in the occupied cities.
“All those who are not afraid and leave. All those who are afraid and leave. All those who feel that without this decision to defend Ukraine and freedom, the occupiers can gain a foothold,” he explained.
The President added that, unfortunately, Ukraine has not yet received enough modern Western anti-missile systems, has not received aircraft, has not received what its partners could provide. They could and still can.
