Dear Ukrainians, I wish you health!

Today I participated in two events of gratitude and respect for our soldiers – our defenders.

Young officers graduate from educational institutions of the National Guard of Ukraine. All of them go to the permanent defense and security forces, the units of our national guard, which, together with all our soldiers, defend Ukraine.

I am grateful to our boys and girls who have chosen such a path of service to Ukraine, to the future of the Ukrainian people – the path of officers. Thank you to all the families of our young professional soldiers for these sons and daughters.

Patriotic, courageous and effective, those who have chosen the opportunity to act in defense of our state and our people as a profession.

Today, on the eve of the Day of the Security Service of Ukraine, I congratulated the personnel of the Security Service of Ukraine, all the personnel of our security service.

It is definitely worth noting: the Security Service of Ukraine is undergoing a fundamental internal transformation.

The service was fully mobilized for the true defense of the state. And he is now giving Ukraine such results of which each of us can only be proud.

The SSU staff fights the external enemy, neutralizes internal threats, puts a historic end to any attempt by Russia to manipulate Ukraine through agents.

Today I thanked all SSU employees. And I am sure that the Service will give Ukraine even more results in the defense of the state.

I had the honor of presenting state awards to privates of the SSU and National Guard ranks.

I am sincerely grateful for the strength in the eyes of our fighters. The strength of those who are able to win for Ukraine.

Today I met with a delegation from the World Bank. We do not waste a single day for international contacts, we work at all levels.

Current support programs for Ukraine and promising new programs were discussed.

Of course, we focused on reconstruction – all that needs to be done in many Ukrainian towns and villages that have suffered terrorist attacks by the occupier.

Residential buildings, social infrastructure, the economic basis of life – all of this needs to be rebuilt. And I thank the partners for understanding that the timing and coordination of efforts are crucial.

As always, today I will mention our fighters, who gave the best result of the past day.

First, in the Donetsk region.

Glorious separate 72nd Mechanized Brigade named after the Black Zaporozhians – thank you, guys! 36th Brigade Marines – well done! The 55th Separate Artillery Brigade Zaporizka Sich – thank you, soldiers, for your constant precision, your battle-hardened deeds!

Marines of the 35th Brigade and 79th Separate Air Assault Brigade – thank you!

Direction Zaporizhzhia: the 44th artillery brigade named after Hetman Danylo Apostol – thanks for the accuracy!

I would like to mention all our fighters who strike the occupier in response to terror, who identify the enemy positions from which they attack our cities. Every terrorist position destroyed is the life saved for our people.

I thank the Armed Forces, Intelligence and Security Service personnel – all involved in carrying out this task… The fair response of fire to those who are the source of terror.

Such strikes as on Kostiantynivka today, as in many other of our cities… The enemy must know: Ukraine will not forgive offenses against our people, will not forgive these dead and wounded.

All Russian terrorists will be defeated.

Thank you to everyone who brings Ukrainian victory closer! Glory to all those who fight for Ukraine!

Eternal memory to all those whose lives were taken by Russia and its terrorist war!

Glory to Ukraine!
