I don’t think we will have negotiations before parliamentary “elections” in Russia end. But at the end of September, we will have an opportunity to meet with an American team in New York. Meanwhile, our teams are in touch. And I hope we can be more open about all of this after a meeting with President Trump. When we speak about the potential outcome of a trilateral meeting, our partners are now raising the issue of exports of grain and other agricultural goods that Russia blocks in the Black Sea. We responded and did the same. We have to respond, otherwise Russia will never stop this war, because it will never feel it. Same with energy. Last month, I had important conversations with Egypt, India, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the United States. Everybody understands that the blockade of food for the world – for the people – is a big challenge. Not only for Ukraine and Russia, but globally. All of this is up to Russia. I’m not sure they can show flexibility in these matters. But strong leaders of the world can move them to the right position, even if they don’t like it. From the press conference with Mark Carney.
Overall, today’s arrangements amount to more than $2 billion – including a government package of more than $1 billion for our defense, primarily to protect our skies: missiles for Patriots, munitions for F-16s, and drone coproduction. There are also arrangements for our energy sector and our joint initiatives. Ukraine and Canada will always be friends and will always make each other stronger. From the press conference with Mark Carney. (3/3)
I am grateful to Canada for our energy arrangements – this is important. We have concrete arrangements in the energy sector that will strengthen us both ahead of this winter and over the longer term. Canada is also ready to support our Ukrainian veterans. A Veterans Fund will be established, and I am grateful to Canada for its contribution to this fund – $40 million – which will support our programs for veterans. From the press conference with Mark Carney. (2/3)
I am grateful to Canada for the new defense package. Above all, it will strengthen our air defense – both our Patriots and our combat aircraft, which down Russian jet-powered “shaheds.” Our pilots are also being trained here in Canada – 21 Ukrainians are undergoing training, and this will be a significant reinforcement – together with other countries that are training our people at various stages to operate combat aircraft. Today, we reached an agreement on the Drone Deal, and the first document has been signed. This will give us additional opportunities to finance Ukraine’s defense, while giving Canada a new technological edge proven in modern warfare. From the press conference with Mark Carney. (1/3)
Вдячний Канаді й Прем’єр-міністру Марку Карні за те, що наші перемовини завжди предметні й сфокусовані на тому, що може допомогти захисту життя вже зараз. Детально проговорили можливості для забезпечення фінансової стійкості України на цей і наступний рік. Дякую за готовність допомогти з пошуком необхідного фінансування для потреб бюджету та наших воїнів. Також розповів про фактично постійні російські удари балістикою і дронами. Марк запевнив, що Канада готова долучитися до нашої Європейської антибалістичної програми FREYJA своїми технологіями. Це крок потрібний і вчасний. Також будуть додаткові оборонні постачання. Звісно, дуже змістовно також проговорили перспективні двосторонні проєкти в обороні та економіці. Зокрема, зараз наші команди опрацьовують Drone Deal. Розраховуємо, що вже найближчим часом зможемо вийти на повноцінну угоду. Дякую, Марку! Дякую народу та всій Канаді за вагому підтримку.
I am grateful to Canada and Prime Minister @MarkJCarney for talks that are always substantive and focused on what can help protect lives right now. We discussed in detail the options for ensuring Ukraine’s financial resilience this year and next. Thank you for your readiness to help secure the necessary financing for our budget needs and for our warriors. I also spoke about the virtually constant Russian ballistic missile and drone strikes. Mark assured me that Canada is ready to join our European anti-ballistic missile program FREYJA with its technologies. This is a necessary and timely step. There will also be additional defense deliveries. Of course, we also had a meaty discussion about promising bilateral projects in defense and the economy. In particular, our teams are currently working on the Drone Deal. We expect to reach a full-fledged agreement in the near future. Thank you, Mark! Thank you to the Canadian people and all of Canada for your significant support.
I am grateful to Prime Minister @MarkJCarney for his invitation to Canada. We have begun our bilateral visit and very substantive talks. We have built excellent relations between our nations and strong, reliable relations between our governments. I am grateful for every package of assistance and for everything Canada has done throughout this war. We truly appreciate it. To achieve peace, we need to be strong. We need a strong and lasting peace for our country. And we are grateful to have such strong friends as Canada with us on this path. Today, we are discussing the winter support package and energy. This is very important. Today, we have a significant decision from Canada – a very important assistance package for air defense. There is a severe global shortage of such systems and the missiles for them, and we are grateful for this support. I am very glad to be here among friends. Thank you for your support – support for Ukraine, Ukrainians, our children, our sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Today in our city of Pavlohrad, the Russians killed people with drones who were simply near shopping malls. As of now, four people have been reported killed… My condolences to their families and loved ones. More than 60 people were wounded in this strike alone. Everyone is receiving the necessary assistance. Dozens of people were also wounded in Kramatorsk by Russian bombs that struck residential buildings. Other cities and communities in the Dnipro and Donetsk regions, as well as the Sumy, Chernihiv, and Kharkiv regions, also came under attack. In the evening, Dnipro and Kyiv were also targeted. We are working as intensively as possible with our partners so that we can protect Ukrainians from this Russian terror. Today, there will be decisions on additional support packages for Ukraine, including defense assistance and support specifically for protecting our skies. We are also preparing additional support packages. The world sees what Russia is doing. And Ukraine will have support. One hundred percent of our attention is focused on this now – concrete strengthening of our defense, concrete funding for defense, and concrete opportunities for weapons manufacturers to protect lives. Thank you to everyone who is helping!
За цю добу наші воїни нанесли удари по восьми обʼєктах російської інфраструктури, які працюють на війну. Уражено НПЗ у Ямало-Ненецькому регіоні, а також Морський торговий порт у Дагестані. Під ударами були також об’єкти у Московському, Воронезькому, Астраханському та Брянському регіонах. Росія щодня продовжує свій терор проти України. І щодня отримує справедливу відповідь. Дякую кожному воїну, усім, хто забезпечує нашу далекобійність та влучність.
Over the past 24 hours, our warriors struck eight Russian infrastructure facilities supporting the war. An oil refinery in the Yamalo-Nenets region and a seaport in Dagestan were hit. Sites in the Moscow, Voronezh, Astrakhan, and Bryansk regions were also struck. Russia continues its daily terror against Ukraine. And every day, it receives a just response. I thank every warrior and everyone who enables our long-range capabilities and precision.
Arrived in Canada. Canada has been and remains one of our closest partners. We value all the support from Canadians and the decisions that help Ukraine stand strong and protect our people. Important meetings and agreements are planned that will shape our cooperation and solidify the already strategic level of our relationship for years to come. I will meet with Prime Minister @MarkJCarney. The main focus will be on supporting Ukraine in protecting our skies and preparing for the winter. We will discuss how to strengthen our resilience, support our people, and ensure that Ukraine has the capabilities it needs to defend itself. The First Lady has a meeting planned with philanthropists who support Ukraine. She will also visit Canadian equivalents of Ukraine’s “Schools of Superheroes.” Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine.
Дорогою до Канади провів зустріч із міністеркою закордонних справ Ісландії Торгердур Катрін Гуннарсдоттір. Обговорили підготовку України до зимового періоду, захист нашої енергетики й посилення протиповітряної оборони. Розраховуємо на подальшу співпрацю та внески Ісландії до Фонду енергетичної підтримки. Надана раніше допомога вже дає конкретні результати, і ми вдячні за це. Також говорили про співробітництво в технологічній та оборонній сферах, де Україна готова ділитися своїм досвідом із партнерами. Дякую Ісландії за підтримку.
On my way to Canada, I met with Iceland’s Minister for Foreign Affairs, @thorgkatrin. We discussed Ukraine’s preparations for the winter, the protection of our energy sector, and strengthening our air defense. We count on continued cooperation and Iceland’s contributions to the Ukraine Energy Support Fund. The assistance provided earlier is already yielding concrete results, and we are grateful for that. We also discussed cooperation in the technology and defense sectors, where Ukraine is ready to share its experience with partners. I am grateful to Iceland for its support.
We paid our respects to King Harald V. Ukraine will always be grateful to Norway for all its assistance. This support comes not only from the government, but also from the Royal Family and all the people of Norway. I recall with gratitude our warm meeting with His Majesty and the special attention he paid to Ukraine. He was a monarch who, for over 35 years, embodied Norway – its openness, dignity, and respect for people. Over that time, our bond with Norway has grown especially strong. We are grateful that Norway has stood with Ukraine all these years. Thank you for the decisions that are helping us protect people and stand firm today.
Thank you for this accuracy and long-range capability! It is important that we respond to Russia’s war in a completely justified way – and in a way the enemy can truly feel. Every such strike reduces Russia’s ability to delay the decisions needed for diplomacy.
Rescue operations are now underway in various regions of our country following Russian drone strikes. In Sumy, a Russian drone struck near a shopping mall. So far, two people are known to have been killed and fourteen others wounded. A brutal strike on a nine-story apartment building in Kyiv killed one person and injured seven, including two children. The Russians carried out large-scale attacks on Mykolaiv overnight and throughout the morning. Tragically, two people were killed and seven others wounded. My condolences to the families and loved ones of those killed. Right now, it is important for all partners to focus as much as possible and work on the relevant steps toward de-escalation and an end to the killing. We discussed this both with the U.S. President’s team and with European representatives. If this Russian war continues, all the terrorist attacks and terrorist tactics that Russia is testing in Ukraine – and against which we are seeking and building defenses – could become tools for exerting the same kind of pressure on other countries as well. This is not just about one country. Terror is always a threat to many, and we must counter it together. Thank you to everyone who is truly helping protect lives!
Norwegian Prime Minister @jonasgahrstore and I met with executives from defense companies of partner countries. The main topic was the FREYJA anti-ballistic program, which can provide Europe with integrated protection against air threats through the joint efforts of Ukraine, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. Together with the leadership of FirePoint, Kongsberg, Weibel, Saab, Diehl Defence, Hensoldt, Thales, Safran, Sener, and Leonardo, we agreed on the specific steps leaders and government officials need to take at their level, and manufacturers and developers at theirs. We expect to see the first practical results. I am grateful to Norway for hosting this meeting. I thank our partners for their readiness to work together. Protecting Europe’s skies is our shared responsibility.
Відповідаємо Росії на її щоденні терористичні удари – ефективно і фактично по всій географії. За цю добу є результати у Новоросійську в Краснодарському регіоні. Уражено військово-морську базу: термінал, що задіяний у відвантаженні нафти, обʼєкти військової гавані, військові кораблі, носії «калібрів». Дякую воїнам СБУ, СБС, ВМС ЗСУ, ГУР, ДПСУ за влучність. Дякую кожному, хто розвиває потенціал наших далекобійних санкцій, щоб російська війна все більше відчувалася там, звідки вона прийшла.
We are responding to Russia’s daily terrorist strikes – effectively and practically across its entire map. Over the past 24 hours, there have been results in Novorossiysk, in the Krasnodar region. A naval base was hit, including a terminal used to load oil, military port facilities, and warships carrying Kalibr missiles. I thank the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Ukrainian Navy, Defense Intelligence, and the State Border Guard Service for their precision. I thank everyone developing our long-range sanctions capabilities, so that Russia’s war is increasingly felt where it came from.
This morning in Kyiv, a Russian drone struck an apartment building. Four people were injured. As always, our rescuers responded swiftly, and the fire has now been extinguished. Last night in the Odesa region, the international Starokozache border crossing with Moldova was hit. Operations there have been suspended. Tragically, two people were killed and three others were injured. Sixteen people were evacuated by rescuers. My condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims. Efforts are also underway to deal with the aftermath of the Russian attack in the Dnipro, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Zhytomyr, and Kyiv regions. Unfortunately, there has been too little response from the international community to these strikes, which are taking people’s lives practically every day. But a response is needed – Moscow must not go into the winter believing that it can get away with missile and drone terror without consequences. The aggression must be stopped here and now, before it spreads any further. And it is important that sanctions and support for Ukraine work effectively toward this goal. The partners who can help know exactly what is needed every day. And I thank everyone who is helping to the best of their ability.
Провели хорошу зустріч із Прем’єр-міністром Норвегії Йонасом Гаром Стере. Я висловив співчуття у зв’язку зі смертю Його Величності Короля Норвегії Гаральда V. Україна дуже цінує всю підтримку з боку королівської родини та всього Норвезького народу. Говорили з Йонасом про посилення української ППО, наші потреби в ракетах-перехоплювачах, подальшу роботу над антибалістичною програмою FREYJA та підготовку України до проходження зими. Дякую Йонасу Гару Стере за зустріч і незмінну підтримку нашого народу.
I had a good meeting with the Prime Minister of Norway, Jonas Gahr Støre @jonasgahrstore. I expressed my condolences on the passing of His Majesty King Harald V. Ukraine greatly values all the support from the royal family and the Norwegian people. Jonas and I discussed strengthening Ukraine’s air defenses, our need for interceptor missiles, further work on the FREYJA anti-ballistic program, and preparing Ukraine for the winter. Thank you, Jonas, for the meeting and your unwavering support for our people.
Разом з Оленою прибули до Норвегії. Попереду важливі заходи. Завтра від усіх наших людей висловимо вдячність Норвегії під час церемонії прощання з Його Величністю Королем Гаральдом V. Також сьогодні зустрінуся з Прем’єр-міністром Йонасом Гаром Стере. Говоритимемо про продовження підтримки України. Головне питання – посилення ППО та допомога в інших сферах, які важливі для проходження зими. Звісно, разом із Йонасом проведемо зустріч із компаніями, які працюють над розробкою антибалістичної системи FREYJA. Дякую всім, хто допомагає Україні.
Olena @ZelenskaUA and I landed in Norway. We have important engagements ahead. Tomorrow, on behalf of all our people, we will express our gratitude to Norway at the farewell ceremony for His Majesty King Harald V. Today, I will also meet with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre. We will discuss continued support for Ukraine. The main issue is strengthening air defense and assistance in other areas that are important for getting through the winter. Naturally, Jonas and I will also meet with the companies developing the FREYJA anti-ballistic system. Thank you to everyone who is helping Ukraine.
Другий крок за сьогодні з партнерами щодо ППО: Німеччина готова підтримати ракетами для «петріотів». Дякую! Це саме такі рішення, які наближають мир, – коли зменшуєш потенціал агресора ламати життя. Важливо, щоб захист життя мав достатню силу. Дякую Німеччині за принциповість, підтримку та тисячі й тисячі врятованих життів від російських ударів!
