President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the nation, speaking about a summit ahead of the anniversary of our state charitable platform United24 and the outcomes of meetings in Helsinki and Haifa.

"I wish you good health, dear Ukrainians!

Today we maintained the pace and strength of international work – every day brings results for Ukraine.

This morning, after returning from the Netherlands, I met with Bahrain’s Minister of Foreign Affairs. This is, by the way, the first visit by the head of this country's foreign ministry since our diplomatic relations began in 1992 – that is another argument that the world not only believes in Ukraine but also sees how our state is strengthening.

We talked with Mr. Minister about how we can together bring peace to Ukraine and restore stability to international relations. I thanked him for his consistent support of Ukraine and civilized rules, including support at the UN General Assembly. We discussed the Ukrainian peace formula, and I believe that Bahrain could join its implementation.

Today there was a summit ahead of the anniversary of our state charitable platform United24. When this platform started working last May, we had one main task – to unite ordinary people around the world, to unite for Ukraine and in defense of freedom. And it worked!

United24 has collected donations from different individuals and companies from 110 countries worldwide. We have 15 star ambassadors. Personally, I am proud of United24's support for our work on the fleet of maritime drones as well as all projects related to unmanned aerial vehicles for the front lines. This is thousands of drones making Ukraine stronger.

Much has been done within the medical direction of United24, there are results in the reconstruction direction too. Now we are adding an educational direction – this is school restoration and relocation. A huge task that stands before Ukraine and which can be realized not over decades but in years if there is sufficient global support. No Russian mine will remain on our land!

In the evening, I met with a delegation of the US Congress. We talked about further interaction between our countries for global freedom.

Now that we are shoulder to shoulder with America fighting against tyranny, we have reached such a level of cooperation between Ukraine and the USA as has never been before. But this is not the limit. We will continue to develop our cooperation – our true alliance. And I thank everyone who helps! Thank you President Biden for your leadership. Thank you both parties and chambers of Congress for consistent support. Thank you all Americans whose desire for freedom together with Ukrainian aspirations, together with all our allies and partners, protects global democracy.

Today there was also a meeting with representatives of the Venice Commission, with representatives of investment fund BlackRock.

So, in a week: The United States and Bahrain, the Netherlands and Belgium, Finland and Sweden, Norway and Denmark, Iceland, Canada, New Zealand, the African Union and Comoros. And the entire multinational community of donors and partners of United24. We are doing everything so that the world hears Ukraine, understands Ukraine and helps Ukraine. Because helping us, the world protects itself.

I am glad to say that as a result of meetings in Helsinki and Haifa we have a strong reinforcement for our warriors with weapons – on land, in the air and at sea. I thank our partners! This is a significant reinforcement. We have more progress regarding NATO and the European Union. We have more progress regarding Russia's responsibility for aggression against our country.

Glory to every soldier fighting for Ukraine today on combat missions and posts!

To stand, to win and to punish the enemy – this is our common task. In unity, making Ukraine stronger each day, adding new opportunities to our state each day, we will reach victory!

Eternal glory to all our heroes of different times who defended and protected Ukraine!

Glory to our people!

Glory to Ukraine!">
