"Wishing health to all Ukrainians!"
Today, the President and First Lady of the Republic of Korea are visiting our country. This is a very important visit, a very significant direction for our international work. And it's the first time that the President of the Republic of Korea has visited Ukraine since relations between our countries began.
Now, when global support for Ukraine directly affects the speed at which the war will end, we are doing everything possible to ensure that this support is as intense and meaningful as possible.
Just 15 days ago, we had meetings, discussions, events with leaders from the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Turkey, the Czech Republic, Poland. Also Slovakia, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Sweden, Portugal, Spain and Canada, Australia and New Zealand, South Africa, Guinea-Bissau. NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg, President of the European Council Michel, President of the European Commission von der Leyen, Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew.
Addressing the student community in Argentina, communicating with the largest and most promising American investors and company leaders.
Today — very meaningfully — Mr. President of the Republic of Korea. And we will maintain the highest pace of international work at all levels to restore peace for our entire land and for all our people.
One of the most terrible things that war brings is division... We cannot leave any of our people, any town or village in Russian captivity. Everywhere where Russian occupation continues, violence reigns, people are oppressed. I am grateful to all our partners – every leader, every politician, civic activist, every country that truly supports us in the fact that only full liberation of all our Ukrainian territory will allow us to restore the full strength of the international order based on rules.
And, of course, my gratitude to all our soldiers. These weeks at the front were very important. Marines of the 35th and 36th separate brigades. Artillerymen of the 55th separate brigade "Zaporizhzhia Sich". The 47th separate mechanized brigade "Magura". Paratroopers of the "Seventy-Ninth". The 3rd separate assault brigade. The 5th separate assault brigade. The 80th separate brigade of airborne troops. The 57th separate motorized infantry brigade.
I thank all of you! You are simply all great! Everyone who bravely, steadfastly, strongly fights for Ukraine!
Ukraine will definitely win!
Glory to you, soldiers!
Glory to everyone who fights and works for Ukraine!
Glory to Ukraine!"
