He emphasized that “the aggressor must lose” and noted that every delay in the delivery of weapons means loss of life for the Ukrainian army.

“We are already preparing for another Rammstein meeting. And we expect thorough solutions that match the prospects on the battlefield. Quite ambitious prospects, towards which we are going with all our might. Moreover, we appeal to them not only for us, not only for Ukraine, but also for our entire anti-war coalition,” the Ukrainian president said.

“The aggressor must lose. And it is our shared responsibility with our partners to buy more time for peace, that is, to be as active as possible now in supplying weapons and ammunition to accelerate our common victory. I signed the decree awarding our soldiers with decorations. 127 soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine… 68 of them died posthumously,” said the Kyivan.

“It is very important to understand: every time we hear that the promised delivery of weapons is delayed, every time there are doubts about the type of weapons for Ukraine, their range or other qualitative characteristics – every time this means that the Ukrainian military is giving their lives so that we had this time… The time spent on persuading the delivery of the necessary weapons to take place after all,” he demanded.

“Each enemy destroyed now is a meter of freed Ukrainian land tomorrow,” Volodymyr Zelenskyi emphasized.

Then the Ukrainian president thanked everyone who participated in the search operations in Sloviansk after Friday’s shelling of a residential building, as a result of which civilians were killed.

“Yesterday in Slovyansk, a search and rescue operation was completed after Russian terrorists shelled residential buildings. I want to celebrate our people who, together with their colleagues on the ground, did everything possible… Despite the threat of repeated shelling and despite all the difficulties, they did everything possible to save as many lives as possible,” he said.
