Thank you to Corriere della Sera for the good interview and your attention to important details that matter to Ukraine, Italy, and Europe.

Thank you to Meet the Press for the interview, for your attention to Ukraine, and for trying to get to the truth.

Today, I especially want to recognize the 82nd Separate Air Assault Brigade, which is carrying out missions in the Oleksandrivskyi sector – thank you for your confident assault operations and good combat planning. I thank the warriors of the 128th Separate Heavy Mechanized Brigade, which is also fighting confidently and destroying the occupying forces in the Zaporizhzhia sector. I thank the 59th Separate Assault Brigade of Unmanned Systems and the 414th Separate Unmanned Systems Brigade – thank you, warriors, for your excellent results in destroying the occupiers in the Donetsk region. We thank our assault units in the Pokrovsk sector. I also want to recognize today the warriors of the 1st Separate Unmanned Systems Center of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine for the timely and accurate delivery of our long-range sanctions to Russian territory. And I also thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and our intelligence services – the Defense Intelligence and the Foreign Intelligence Service – for their accuracy. Thank you all! From President Zelenskyy’s evening address.

Putin has started his winter operation against our energy system – massively, right now, in October. People are left without electricity because Russian ballistic missiles and drones keep hitting our energy, and water supplies, and energy facilities. I ask you to really focus on helping us get PAC-2 and PAC-3 interceptors. Ukraine can’t get by on just two or four missiles from a country every few months. Of course, we are thankful to all of you, but I think you have to understand. So please let what European countries already have be put to use to protect our lives. We need a winter package – we always spoke about it between us – of missiles – 300 Patriot interceptors specifically against ballistic missiles. And this is really important. Not just for Ukraine, but strategically – for what happens next, after this winter, to Ukraine and to all of Europe. Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s address at the European Council meeting.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Yesterday, unfortunately, Kyiv was hit by ballistic missiles, and we received no warning from our partners about this attack. Usually, we do receive such warnings, and they are extremely important – they help us defend ourselves. There were five ballistic missiles, and, in fact, our Armed Forces detected them only seconds before impact. And that is precisely why we tell our partners that their cooperation with Ukraine provides greater protection for life, allows us to save more people, and helps stop Russian killings. Our military and intelligence services must cooperate fully, and on our side, we have everything necessary in place. From President Zelenskyy’s evening address.

Today, the European Union imposed its largest sanctions package against Russia, targeting around 1,600 individuals and legal entities linked to Russia’s military-industrial complex. Ukraine is grateful to President of the European Council António Costa @eucopresident, President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen, and all EU member states for adopting this sanctions package, as well as to EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Kaja Kallas @kajakallas, who played an important role in making this step possible. Restrictions have been imposed on Russian enterprises and their executives involved in the production of ballistic missiles, communications equipment, electronics, radio navigation equipment, and specialized machinery, as well as in mechanical engineering and shipbuilding. In total, the sanctions list includes 826 legal entities and 743 individuals. Consistently strengthening sanctions against Russia’s military-industrial complex is an important part of limiting Russia’s ability to continue its aggression against Ukraine. At the same time, it is important to further restrict access to critical components and technologies and strengthen oversight of compliance with sanctions restrictions. Also today, the European Union imposed sanctions on 77 individuals who participated in the illegal “elections” to the Russian State Duma in Ukraine’s temporarily occupied territories, as well as members of Russia’s Central Election Commission. Importantly, both decisions were adopted as part of efforts to synchronize sanctions with Ukraine. Our country will continue working to ensure that all our sanctions measures are synchronized across international jurisdictions.

Even though the Russians outnumber us by a factor of six to eight in some areas of the front, we are still achieving the results Ukraine needs. For this, I want to give special recognition to the warriors of the 12th Special Forces Brigade “Azov” of the National Guard of Ukraine, the 1st Presidential Brigade “Bureviy,” as well as our 95th Brigade of the Airborne Assault Forces, the 413th Regiment “Raid” of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the 104th Separate Territorial Defense Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and the “Phoenix” Border Guard Detachment of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine. Thank you and everyone who fights for Ukraine as they would for themselves. From President Zelenskyy’s evening address.
